SABIE het al die ander dorpe in SuidAfrika uitgestof en is aangekondig as die Rapport en Kwêla se Dorp van die Jaar. Dit is ’n ongelooflike prestasie as in ag geneem word dat Sabie gewen het met ’n stemtal van 71 902. Lady Grey was tweede met 64 677 stemme en Prins Albert derde met 62 759 stemme. Sabie is geleë op die bolope van die Sabie
rivier en die plato van die Drakensberge, aan die voet van die Longtompas. ’n Kombinasie wat tot die ontstaan van die mooiste watervalle gelei het. Al strek Sabie se geskiedenis eeue ver terug, gaan ek net konsentreer op wat tot die ontstaan van die dorp gelei het. Sabie se hoogte maak dat dit nog altyd malariavry was en die ideale plek vir jagters was om hulle basiskampe te vestig. Tydens ’n jagtog wat Henry Glynn gelei het, was ’n rots raak geskiet wat ’n
goudrif ontbloot het. Dit het mense soos vlieë gelok. Die natuurlike woude was afgekap om vir mynbedrywighede aan te wend. Joseph Brook het in 1876 die eerste bome aangeplant in ’n poging om die woude te herstel. Na 14 jaar van droogte en die Depressie was baie boere op hulle knieë en sonder inkomste. Die staat het ingegryp (1929 – 1932) en plantasies begin aanplant om die mense van werk te voorsien. Sabie is vandag nog ’n bosbou dorp. Wanneer ’n
mens vandag in die rigting van Graskop ry en by die Loggers Inn links draai, lei die pad na verskeie watervalle. Dit word aanbeveel dat jy na die verste waterval eerste gaan en jou pad dan terugwerk. Goeie stapskoene is ’n moet want die voetpaadjies is glad. Jy moet ook bereid wees om te klouter. Lone Creek is 68 m hoog. Dit is ’n 9 km teerpad tot by die valle en ’n 200 m gerieflike stap om die waterval met die hand te groet.
Die pragtige natuurskoon van Sabie maak dit die ideale Dorp van die Jaar - wat is daar nou nie om te bewonder nie?

Die koning van die wildtuin Hierdie jong kraagmannetjie-leeu is vroegoggend in die Kruger Wildtuin afgeneem deur Barbara Taylor. Inskrywing vir Foto van die Maand Kompetisie.
Michelle Boshoff PELGRIMSRUS se sake het nog nie gaan rus nie. Om te verhoed dat so ’n belaglike, onwettige toestand weer heers het die DA in Mpumalanga strafregtelike klagte ingedien teen staatsamptenare. Dit het voorendag
gekom dat daar ’n slang in die gras was met die tenderproses. In ’n persvrystelling het die DA leier van Mpumalanga Anthony Benadie gesê dat hulle tans in gesprek is met “wetstoepassers” om teen dié amptenare op te tree. “Ons is tans besig met ’n beëdigde verklaring om ’n strafregtelike klag in te dien teen Kgopane Mohlasedi, die Departementshoof van Openbare Werke in Mpumalanga. Hy is as rekenpligtige amptenaar verantwoordelik vir die gemors en ons glo hy het versuim om sy pligte na te kom,” sê Benadie. Volgens hom bestaan daar reeds ’n baie goeie prima facie-saak wat wys verskeie regulasies is oortree. “Dit is duidelik dat tenders wat glad nie markverwant en kostedoeltreffend is nie aan mense toegestaan
is. Die staat het miljoene rande hieruit verloor,” sê hy. Die Gholfbaan sou byvoorbeeld vir slegs R33 per maand gehuur word. Die DA sukkel om samewerking en inligting van die Departement van Openbare Werke te kry nadat die hooggeregshof in Pretoria opdrag gegee het dat die staat dokumentasie rakende die tenders openbaar moet maak. Regter Ephraim Makgoba het einde Julie ’n interdik aan die 14 ondernemings toegestaan toe die staat hulle uit hul winkels wou skop en die tenders vir dié winkels aan nuwe ondernemings wou gee. Die interdik is van krag hangende ’n hersieningsaansoek van die tenderproses.

Clamping down on crime Michelle Boshoff A shoplifting analysis was discussed by the Lydenburg SAPS last week with their business partners in the CBD. Cases reported between May to June 2011 and May to June 2012 increased by 116.6%. Statistics show that shops are mainly targeted in the day time, the highest crime levels are between 12:00 and 18:00, especially between Thursday and Mondays. Saturdays are the highest. The police said that needs to be corrected. “If a person has an intent to steal a chocolate they can have an intent to steal anything. The public and business owners need to be pro active in combatting crime.� Groceries are the target of the most theft. All shop owners are urged to employ security guards, and where possible security cameras should be installed.
Representatives of different businesses in the CBD and the SAPS were in conference last week to discuss crime in the CBD in Lydenburg.

DIE OUTOPPIE SE KOMMENTAAR
Geloof HIERDIE is omtrent die 300 ste storie in hierdie kolom. Ek skrik nie vir politiek nie, maar in die meer as 6 jaar bly ek weg van Godsdiens. Eenvoudig omdat dit ’n persoonlike saak is en een wat met respek bejeen moet word. Nou wys statistiek dat al hoe meer Suid Afrikaners nie meer erns het met Godsdiens nie. Hierdie is ’n probleem. Miskien dink mense die Here het hulle verlaat, maar ek dink dit is andersom. Mense het ’n nuwe god en ek dink dit is die
geldgod. Dit is al waaroor dit gaan. ’n Mens se geloof aan God het nog altyd ’n anker gebied. Ons leef in baie slegte tye. Selfmoord, misdaad, ongeërgdheid en ’n algemene onmin met ander is gewoonlik die gevolg van Goddeloosheid. Ek glo die algemene toestand in Suid Afrika is een van die gevolge van Goddeloosheid. Nou sal sielkundiges, akademici en sulkes vir my sê ek is simpel. Misdaad is te wyte aan armoede. Korrupsie is te wyte aan apartheid of sulke snert. Daar is glo ’n verklaring vir alles, wetenskaplik gefundeer en nagevors, maar God kom nêrens in hierdie navorsing en redes voor nie. Een van die probleme is die interpretasie van Godsdiens. Die Jood, die Christen, die Moslem se God en baie ander se interpretasie is basies dieselfde van een Skepper, of Argitek van die Heelal. Die
probleem is dat ons groepeer en vas glo die ander se interpretasie is verkeerd en van die pad af. Geen verdraagsaamheid of naasteliefde nie. En ons maak oorlog oor hierdie ernstige saak. En stelselmatig stort ons almal die afgrond na Goddeloosheid in. Veral as ons ’n bietjie mag en geld het. Dan is ons onvernietigbaar. Hierdie hele probleem is direk die oorsaak van ons verlies aan moraliteit en ordentlikheid. Dit is waarom die wêreld in anargie, gesinsgeweld, alkoholisme en algemene agteruitgang verval. En dit gaan nie beter word nie. Wat nie sal help nie is eie interpretasie, die vorming van sektes, kerke en quasi gelowe soos ons daarvan hou. Nee, ek glo dit is diep persoonlik. Dit is jy, jou familie, jou Bybel en jou verhouding met God, wat jou lewe definieer. Dit sal nie met ons land beter gaan alvorens ons terugkeer na God nie.

Help tot om bene vir aasvoëls se spyskaart te breek ’n Tyd gelede was ’n artikel geplaas ivm skoolkinders wat ’n taak moes voltooi vir gemeenskapsdiens in die Highlands Panorama Nuus. Ek was weer versoek om ’n kind te help met so ’n taak. Hierdie keer was die bedreigde kransaasvoël die onderwerp. Van die nege endemiese aasvoëls in Suidelike Afrika kom een in hierdie omgewing voor. Die bedreigde kransaasvoel (Gyps coprotheres) bly soos die naam sê, in kranse. Die voël, het ’n vlerkspan van 2 550m en weeg tot 10kg. Aasvoëls vreet dooie diere, en
vervul so ’n baie belangrike skakel in die voedselketting. Groot roofdiere vang en vreet eerste aan die prooidier. Dan vreet hyenas en jakkalse weer verder. Laaste vreet aasvoëls die res op. Na die vreettydperk, rus die voëls voordat hulle weer vlieg. Tydens die rusperiode vreet die volwasse voëls ook klein stukkies been om kalsium in te neem. Hierdie beentjies en kos word aan die kleintjies in die nes gevoer. Aangesien daar nie groot roofdiere by ons is om die bene te breek nie, moet die restaurantbestuur dit doen. De Wet Venter, graad sewe, het hiermee gehelp. Die terrein waar die aasvoëls gevoer word, is ook skoongemaak van alle gevaarlike items, soos draad of plastiek en al die groot onbruikbare bene is verwyder. Dankie aan De Wet vir sy bydrae tot die voortbestaan van die bedreigde voëlsoort. (Bydrae deur Neels Bothma).

Teenager blinded by airbag Do not buy 2nd hand tyres A British girl has been left blind after an airbag inflated and hit her in the face during an horrific car crash. Kelly Green was a passenger in her father’s car days before her 16th birthday when it hit a pothole, collided with the central reservation and flipped on to its roof. Both the driver and passenger airbags inflated on impact, but while her father Geoff walked away from the crash with just cuts and bruises, Kelly was left with devastating injuries to her face. She had to be cut from the family’s BMW 3 Series sedan and was taken to hospital for surgery. She has now had five operations. But doctors say she will never see from her right eye again and there is only a slim chance of regaining the sight in her left. She is learning Braille and touchtyping, and is trying to walk with a cane.
DRIVERS opting to buy used tyres are putting themselves at risk, according to campaign group TyreSafe. In a UK sample group of 50 worn tyres, TyreSafe found that 98% were being sold illegally. Even more alarming was that more than a third of the tyres inspected were found to be dangerously non-compliant. One tyre was described by an inspector as having "the potential to kill" as it still contained a metal object penetrating 5cm through the tread. Other serious safety breaches included unsafe repairs, exposed cords, bead damage and evidence of run-flat damage. Not only are drivers putting their own life at risk but they are also endangering their passengers, which in many cases may be their children, and other road users. TyreSafe data shows the average cost per mm of useable tread on a used tyres was (the equivalent of) R79 whereas the
Kelly’s mother, Bev, 49, said: “You don’t think an airbag could cause as much damage as this. Both of the airbags went off in the crash, and the one in front of Kelly hit her straight in the eyes.
comparable cost when selecting an equivalent new tyre was 16% lower at R66. To put it simply, if a used tyre has 2mm of tread left (R158 x 6 = R474 ) it will cost you less to purchase a comparable new tyre at 6mm of tread (R396).
“She will definitely not get her sight back in the right eye and her left eye doesn’t look promising. She will be having further surgery and we are hoping there could be a chance that one day she will regain the sight in that eye.’
Jackson said: “Even if properly marked, it is impossible to know the history of a worn tyre, which makes it extremely difficult to be sure about its internal condition and safety. With rigorous quality controls on all new tyres, fitting these as replacements is undoubtedly the safest option. "What’s more, as our investigation showed, it’s often the best value too.” Wheels 24.co.za
Neighbours, family and friends are all rallying round to raise funds for specialist equipment. Mrs Green added: “Our lives have been turned upside down but Kelly’s positive attitude is keeping us going. It hasn’t affected her. She is still the same, the only difference is she can’t see.” Her father, a 47-year-old postman, added: “Her face was a complete mess afterwards. The impact pushed her right eye back into the socket. But amazingly we survived when we could easily have been killed.” Kelly said: ‘I was upset when I was told I’d lost my sight. I thought people wouldn’t talk to me. But I want people to know I haven’t changed. I have just had to adjust to everything, I’m still the same girl and I’m not going to give up. “Some things are a bit harder but I’m getting used to using my cane now.” ‘I am still going to school but I am hoping to go to college and then do a masseuse course because it’s something I can do with my hands.” A BMW spokesman said: ‘We are saddened to hear of the injury to Kelly Green while she was a passenger in a BMW.
“Airbags fitted to our vehicles have saved countless lives since their introduction.” - Daily Mail iolMotoring.co.za

42 Countries, 12 years, in Longtom Nissan bederf an old car weer lekker op nasionale vrouedag
TWELVE years ago, Argentinians Herman and Candelaria Zapp hopped into their blue 1928 Graham-Paige car and have since driven through 42 countries across the world. The couple met when Candelaria was only eight, and Herman 10, sharing a dream of travelling the world. “But then we got married and you have to work and there is so much fear of leaving everything behind,” said Candelaria. However, they did not want to start a family until they had fuffilled their dream. Candelaria left her job as a secretary and Herman, then an IT specialist, did the same. January 25, 2000, was the date they set to depart for Alaska. Three days before that, a friend of Herman’s offered to sell him a car. Thinking of the trip ahead, Herman declined, but was persuaded to at least take a look at it. “It was love at first sight,” he said. With $4000 (R32 500) in their pockets, the couple set off on their four-yearlong trip to Alaska, which they initially thought would take six months. “The hardest part was leaving home - with people asking what we would do if we were hurt, kidnapped, or if the car broke down - having to answer questions we did not have answers to,” said Candelaria. The car did only 55km on the first day before breaking down. “When we left, we were warned that people would hurt us. But we were never told that people would help us,” Herman said. They met a blacksmith in Argentina who fixed the car’s damaged wheel, taught Herman a trick or two on how to manage it, and they were off again. But, when they eventually arrived in Alaska, it was not joy or fulfilment they felt, but sadness. “We realised our dream was over. But then we thought it could be the beginning of another dream,” she said. Another joy they experienced during their trips was parenthood - four times to be exact. Their eldest boy, Pampa, 10, was born in the US. Their second boy, Tehue, now seven, was born in Argentina. Their daughter Paloma, 4, was born in Canada and their youngest, son, Wallaby, was born in Australia. The two eldest kids are home-schooled by Candelaria and enrolled in a correspondence course. Herman believes they learn more than other kids by travelling the world. They have seen Mount Everest; witnessed Nasa’s space shuttle launch in Orlando in 2007; visited Hindu and Mayan temples and took a trip down the rivers of the Amazon. “They learn about the world, in the world, and not from books while sitting in a box.” But the greatest joy for the Zapp family has been meeting new people. Even when they came to South Africa, they were not sure how they would be treated because of the country’s historic background. But the kindness they have been shown has blown them away. In KwaZulu-Natal, they were invited to a traditional Zulu wedding. On top of that, 20 strangers from Pretoria, who have read about them, have offered to give them free accommodation during their brief stay in the city. Their three-month visit to the country will have to be extended, they said. They have been given shelter by more than 2 500 families over the past 12 years. Through the kindness of others they have also been able to ship their 84-yearold car from continent to continent. “If I close my eyes, I just see a lot of faces. I do not think of the Grand Canyon, the beautiful islands of the Philippines or the Great Wall of China, but of people, who I miss the most. “If you see the Eiffel Tower once, you have seen it and may not want to return. But if you have made friends, you want to go back and see them again,” Herman said. He recalled a family in Peru who invited him and his family to spend a night in their home. The walls of the one-roomed house were made of cane, and the ground beneath their feet was exposed. But the family offered the Zapps all the food they had and gave them their mats to sleep on. “In the morning, they apologised for not having enough to give us, when they had given us everything,” Herman said. He and his wife hope that following their dream will inspire their children to do the same. - Pretoria News iol.co.za

Chrysler 300 C still a very cool car WHEN the original 300C HEMI was launched in the US in 1957, it was the fastest, most powerful production car built in that country at the time and came to be known as the “beautiful brute”. This moniker applied as much to the previous-gen 300C, which made its local debut in 2005. The benchmark during development for this car was the Lexus GS, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Jaguar XF, BMW 5-Series and Audi's A6. It had its work cut out against such formidable competition and achieved only moderate success, with 1 200 models sold in seven years. After test driving the new version on the Garden Route, it was clear the 300C stands a better chance than ever against the established brands. The line-up includes the Luxury Series 3,0L V6 CRD (R539 990), which produces 176 kW at 4 000 r/min and 550 N.m of torque, the Luxury Series 3,6L V6 (R479 990), which puts out 210 kW and 340 N.m of torque, and the much-anticipated 6,4L HEMI V8 SRT8 (R629 990), the protagonist of this review. The new 300C has been revised in many ways compared with its predecessor. The exterior sports a new mesh grille and 20-inch polished face aluminium wheels on all three models, while Chrysler has opted for satin-chrome on the mirror caps and door handles as opposed to the high-gloss chrome seen before. Blackened chrome upper and lower grille surrounds and wheels in a similar finish are standard on the SRT8, which sits 12,5 mm lower than non-SRT8 models. This model also has a revised rear bumper and 100 mm dual exhaust tips. Inside, the SRT sports a leather-wrapped, heated steering wheel with a satinchrome rim section and flattened bottom with an inset SRT8 logo. Paddle shifters are standard across the range. The carbon-fibre trim in the SRT8 is replaced with wood trim in the other models. The latter finish, which appears quite old-school, dates the otherwise-impressive cabin somewhat. The 300C features Chrysler's largest touchscreen infotainment system (8,4-inch) with Garmin navigation, which is standard across the range. I was excited to see what the SRT8 could do on the open road; after all, it produces 347 kW and 632 N.m of torque. It is mated with a five-speed automatic transmission, unlike the eight-speed used in the other models. The SRT8 delivered on most of my expectations, but the demure power delivery proved somewhat disappointing for a performance saloon. Then again, this car weighs two tonnes. Unfortunately, due to inclement weather, a number of the roads we were meant to drive were closed. So, I got to drive the SRT8 only in a straight line on the N2 between Knysna and Storms River. Therefore, I cannot comment on cornering or handling. In a straight line, at least, the slight vagueness in the steering system at dead-centre does imbue the car with a stable feel at cruising velocities.

eToll saga set to continue THE Constitutional Court will hear arguments as to why it should overturn an interim interdict preventing e-tolling in Gauteng from going ahead this week. Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance chairman Wayne Duvenage said on Friday: "It's on Wednesday and we’re very prepared for the case." He said all the paperwork was done and the council was prepared for the argument on Wednesday, August 15. "We trust that the panel of judges will see the merit of our case and keep the interdict in place until after the full review in November," Duvenage said. According to the interdict granted by the High Court in Pretoria on April 28, a full review first needed to be carried out before electronic tolling of Gauteng's highways could be implemented. The SA National Roads Agency Ltd and National Treasury are appealing the order. Finance minister Pravin Gordhan applied to the Constitutional Court to set aside the court order preventing Sanral from implementing e-tolling. Gordhan argued that Judge Bill Prinsloo had ignored the principle of the separation of powers. He said the decision to halt e-tolling would negatively affect the economy. In its reply, the alliance said Sanral was still not ready to launch the project. On Monday, the Democratic Alliance said it had applied to join the Constitutional Court case. DA MPL Jack Bloom said: “As a political party, the DA has an interest in the key issue in this case, namely the extent to which courts can and should exercise their powers to interdict government." The party had asked to be admitted as a friend of the court to make a "substantive contribution" to the case. "The alliance has not opposed our application, but Sanral and the National Treasury have indicated their opposition," said Bloom. "If government wins, then expect to see more decisions like the e-tolls pushed through without proper consultation." The High Court in Pretoria will hear further arguments in the e-toll case on November 26. Under the project, motorists would pay over R0.35 per kilometre to travel on some of Gauteng's major roads. The project had been scheduled to start on April 30, but was postponed after a meeting between the ANC and its alliance partner, the Congress of SA Trade Unions. - Sapa / iol.co.za
Except for road noise generated by the SRT8's substantial tyres and a faint engine drone at highway speeds, the 300C should prove very adept at longdistance cruising. That said, it proved a tad cumbersome in town driving due to its size and visibility through the shallow glasshouse. The new 300C may have lost some character compared with its Pimp My Ridestyle predecessor, but it posseses more mainstream appeal and should find favour with a wider buying public, especially considering its competitive pricing and strong standard specification.

Beware of tyres that are too big FITTING much bigger wheels and tyres to off-road vehicles is popular. These wheels improve ground clearance and look good, but there is a price to pay, apart of course, for the price of the tyres itself. A wheel and tyre assembly is balanced and the rotating combination runs true. This turning combination takes on a so called gyroscopic effect, which means that it wants to run the way it does, resisting hopping and turning inputs from the steering. In effect this means that when hitting potholes or bumps at speed, the wheels are upset, sometimes causing them to shimmy. On a modern 4x4 this shimmy effect is taken care of by the suspension, steering linkages including power steering and the steering shock absorber. However the heavy wheels wreak havoc with suspension systems. Suspension bushes, roseand ball joints and shocks take a lot of strain and may even break. On wide rims with too large an offset to the outside, the wheel will also want to turn outwards or tramline under braking. At least, you will experience premature failure of all suspension components. If you have to go up on tyre size, lower the tyre profile one size for each inch bigger rim that you fit, or rather stick with your standard diameter rim and go up one profile size on the new tyre only. This is often a good idea, for the pityfull sidewalls on ultra low profile tyres offers you no protection against pothole damage whatsoever. Rather go smaller on the rim and fit more (higher) tyre profile, but remember to keep as close to factory sizes as possible. Remember to have your speedo checked when you change the circumference of your tyres. Andre Coetzee.
Hino improves factory warranty HINO ANNOUNCES TOP RANKING WARRANTY FOR ITS EXTRAHEAVY TRUCKS Hino has announced arguably one of the most comprehensive warranties for extra-heavy trucks in South Africa. The new warranty on the Hino 700 Series model range is now valid for three years with unlimited kilometres for on-road use and two years with unlimited kilometres when the truck is used for off-road operations. “According to our research this is one of the most comprehensive warranties in this segment of the South African truck market,” commented the vice president of Hino SA, Dr Casper Kruger. “Some of the other brands offer more years on the drive train only, but our three years / unlimited kilometre warranty offers some of the best cover on the entire vehicle.” “The new warranty for our premium trucks is the latest addition to our range of HinoCare offerings and a further example of our company’s focus on satisfying our customers, particularly in aspects that contribute to a reduction in operation costs and provide peace of mind for fleet owners,” added Dr Kruger. The HinoCare initiative was launched last September and has found great favour among current and potential customers, particularly as regards its contribution to improving the all important CPK (cost per kilometre) figures. The lower operating costs are due mainly to the introduction of Hino Genuine Motor Oil, which permits the doubling of oil change intervals and hence cuts servicing downtime. Another important component of HinoCare is the 24/7 roadside assistance which operates through a dedicated Hino call centre and includes towing the stricken vehicle to a Hino dealer if necessary. A further contribution to customer peace of mind from Hino SA is the fact that all Hino trucks have been micro-dotted from July 1, 2011 long before this became a legal requirement. There is already a range of service and

maintenance plans that can be tailored by the dealer to meet a customer’s requirements, which tend to be widely varied in the transport industry. The company announced significant improvements to the warranty benefits for certain models with the introduction of HinoCare, with cover for the 300 and 500 Series moving to two years/unlimited kilometres. Warranty cover for the 700 Series was one year/unlimited kilometres with a power train warranty of 24 months or 300 000km prior to the introduction of the latest, much improved terms of three years/unlimited kilometres for onroad applications and two years/unlimited kilometres for offroad operations. “When we launched HinoCare last year we said we would be looking to upgrade the offering over time and the much-improved warranty on the 700 Series extra-heavy truck range is a further step down this path of continually finding ways of improving customer satisfaction and the Hino ownership experience in South Africa,” concluded the Hino SA vice-president.

Wenner van Sakekamer Logo Kompetisie DIE Sakekamer se logo-kompetisie het uiteindelik 'n wenner – en die keuse was beslis nie maklik nie. Grafiese kunstenaars Anandi Boshoff van Highlands Panorama en Ebben Manyike van Steelburger het uiteindelik uit 'n magdom inskrywings, besluit op plaaslike kunstenaar Lyndsay Uys van Lyndsay Uys Designs se dinamiese rat-logo. Lyndsay, wat na matriek aan die Pretoria High School for Girls, 'n Nasionale Diploma in Grafiese Kuns aan die Pretoria Technikon en 'n diploma in Rekenaargrafieka aan die Oxford College verwerf het, doen stil-stil pragtige werk in die dorp. Vra maar vir die feesgangers wat die onlangse Bastille-dag by Cowshed bygewoon het – Lyndsay se kunswerke was behoorlik rewolusionêr! Sy was agt jaar lank Consol Glass se artistieke ontwerper waar sy moes sorg vir die ontwerp van brosjures, glasware, en verpakkingsmateriaal vir die mark. Omdat Consol al die glasware vir die 1995 Wêreldbeker geborg het, was sy ook deel van die opwinding van dié projek. As vryskut-ontwerper in die Limpopoprovinsie het sy werk gedoen vir Anglo Platinum, verskeie regeringsdepartemente, wildsplase en ook vir Limpopo se Kinderlyn. Onder haar spesiale toekennings tel die Sunday Times se Careers Advertising Award eerste prys in 2002 en SACOB Logo Design winner, Mokopane se Spesiale Meriete-toekenning Lindsay Uys vir uitnemende kunsprestasie. Lyndsay en Francois en hul twee dogters Michele(19) en Tayla(13) het in April 2009 van

Polokwane af Lydenburg toe getrek, toe Francois by Twee Riviere aangesluit het. Hulle het verlief geraak op die omgewing, die nabyheid van die Wildtuin en vir Francois was die kunsvlieghengel 'n bonus. Die dieper boodskap agter die logo, verduidelik Lyndsay, lyk so: Die Rat verteenwoordig nywerheid en industrie en samewerking tussen die vier sektore in Lydenburg / Mashishing: die Sakekamer, die Landelike Forum, Mynbou-forum en plaaslike regering. Blou is 'n algemene korporatiewe kleur en simboliseer ook waarheid en vrede. Grys herinner dadelik aan die omgewing se rykdom aan minerale en veral platinum. Blou-groen staan vir lewe, die natuur en algemene welstand. Die logo kan ook in swart en wit gebruik word. En dan natuurlik – die rat is in beweging, as simbool van die Sakekamer se groei en beweging tans en in die jare wat voorlê. “Saam-saam kry ons dinge gedoen”, is die leuse van die Sakekamer – en ook die boodskap van die logo, sê Lyndsay. Besighede wat wil deel wees van die Sakekamer se jaarlikse Sakegids, kan met Gerda Whitehorn in Grafiese ontwerper Anandi Boshoff van verbinding tree by Highlands Panorama met Lyndsay Uys 079 694 9462 of se wen-logo wat die Lydenburg / gerda.whitehorn@ Mashishing Sakekamer se nuwe beeld pamgolding.co.za. gaan uitdra.

Travelling Mining & Technical Exhibitions TRAVELLING Mining & Technical Exhibitions has been in operation since 1993 and has held hundreds of shows in and around all the major mines and mining areas in Southern Africa. Our philosophy is the dissemination of information to all interested parties, both locally and in neighbouring countries. Our substantial investment in shell schemes, tents and transport enables us to fully meet the needs of both the visitor and the exhibitor. Yet our involvement goes even further. Our focus is to encourage I N N O VAT I O N a n d DEMONSTRATIONS which create a great deal of visitor interest. By working closely with the mining community, we can fully customise our exhibitions to meet the specific needs of the mining industry. We are fully committed to bringing exhibitions that are not only beneficial to the various regions and mines, but used as a vehicle for feedback, training and very importantly education. As a member of EXSA (The Exhibition and Event Association of Southern Africa) we adhere to the Code of Ethics of EXSA which protects the interest of its members, exhibitors and visitors to our exhibitions. Our high standards and ethics ensure that we maintain our professional image when hosting our exhibitions. Whilst the exhibition is open to all, MTE targets decision makers through personal invitations from supervisory to senior management. We also have an alternate monthly tabloid publication, 'Mining and Mineral Product Review (MMPR)” that is totally dedicated to publishing editorial of new or newly developed products or services in the mining industry. All editorial content is allocated to one of the following sections: 2013 Milestones, Health and Safety, Management and Leadership, Mining, Sustainabilityand Finance & HR. Once more we will be hosting an exhibition in your area, namely Lydenburg on 21 August 2012 at the Rooikat Rugby Club from13:00-17:00 and our Steelpoort exhibition, which we
