Lydenburg/Mashishing se jaarlikse Sakegids DIS weer sulke tyd - tyd vir Lydenburg/Mashishing se jaarlikse Sakegids. Die produksiespan, Charlene Coetzee (links), Marietjie Bezuidenhout (verantwoordelik vir ontwerp en samestelling van die gewilde gids) en Gerda Whitehorn (redakteur), het volstoom begin werk aan die 2018/2019 gids. Die glanstydskrif, die sewende in die reeks, word jaarliks gratis versprei aan besighede en industrieë wat met ons dorp en omgewing besigheid doen. Dit is loshande die nuttigste en mees omvattende sake-foonboek vir die Lydenburg, Steelpoort en Burgersfort-omgewing. Lede van die Sakekamer se telefoonnommers word gratis in die glanstydskrif geplaas - in kategorieë binne-in die boek en alfabeties agter-in. Verlede jaar het die Sakekamer een gratis foonnommer vir alle besighede geborg en daar was skuins duskant 700 gelysde nommers. Handige inligting oor skole, kerke en instansies in die dorp, word ook jaarliks geplaas en waar moontlik bygehou. Die nuttige kaarte van Lydenburg, Burgersfort en Steelpoort asook 'n kaart van myne en smelters in die omgewing, maak ook van dié gids 'n bêre-boek. Geld en die ekonomie is nie 'n verskoning nie - vir so min as R120 kan jy jou besigheid se telefoonnommer in die boek lys. Adverteerders wat belê in 'n blok-advertensie, kry twee gratis plasings. Die oplaag van die gids het van 5000 na 8000 gegroei en vir die nuwe uitgawe, wat voor die vierde kwartaal sal verskyn, word 10 000 uitgawes beplan. Die boek was in 2017 binne twee weke opgeraap en met Alzu as nuwe verspreidingspunt, is dit nou nodig om meer te druk. Dit is belangrik om hierdie Sakegids, wat in samewerking met die Sakekamer uitgegee word, te onderskei van ander privaat inisiatiewe. Slegs die span in die foto verteenwoordig die Sakegids of Business Directory. Instansies, skole en kerke kry gratis plasings mits ons hul korrekte inligting betyds ontvang. Vir meer inligting, stuur asb 'n e-pos aan marietjie@gm-web.com, gerda@whitehorn.co.za of whatsapp 079 515 7799.
Kinderbeskermingsweek 2018 word die jaar gevier tussen 28 Mei en 1 Junie
ON Saturday 19 May, a teacher at Skhila Secondary School decided to brighten the learning environment for her learners in her class. Mrs Lily Sigauke purchased paint and painting equipment from her own pocket and asked two students to volunteer their time on Saturday. Pictured here are Mrs Lily Sigauke and Comfort Ntimane and Keith Green, Grade 12 learners who happily gave of their time. This is a wonderful initiative taken by a teacher, in her private capacity, to brighten the teaching environment she works in. Mr Gerald Mokwena, Principal of Skhila Secondary School was very impressed by her actions and calls on the community and business to donate paint to the school if they are able, so that they can undertake this task in other classrooms too. If anyone would like to help, please contact Mr Mokwena on 083 973 1291.

Nog onverskillige trokke in Lydenburg.
My Lydenburg Sharmain Grobler noem hierdie drie fotos: “My Lydenburg” Sy sê Lydenburg is so vol negatiwiteit en opstand en geweld en wanhoop en probleme dat sy net gedink het n bietjie "mooi" sal goed wees vir n slag.
Vragmotors stop net waar hulle wil en blokkeer besighede se ingange net om mense 'n saamry geleentheid te gee. Hierdie foto is Saterdag oggend (12 Mei) net voor nege reg voor Top Carpets in Viljoenstraat geneem. ~ Reinet Bell

Joel (Pompies) Letwaba writes: The beautiful and blessed wedding between the two love birds, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was a marvel to watch. The power of love that brought the two into husband and wife is beyond any human measure. The power of love that compelled my beautiful sister Meghan to surrender her successful career as a world class actress is amazing. The power of love that convinced Meghan into venturing into an extremely conservative royal family and foreign monarchy, shocked the entire world community. I am as well grateful to Prince Harry by his incredible great sense of humour which superseded narrow minded sentiments. The world community is stunned by the power of love which refused Prince Harry to succumb to a family status quo. His incredible sense of Ubuntu improved the image and removed at the same time a cloud of suspicion that hovered over the conservative monarchy since the passing of Pprincess Diana. Honestly speaking it was a beautiful wedding. The behaviour and understanding of the power of love by Prince Harry, was clearly demonstrated shortly after his mother death. After the death of his mother, the Prince went into a deep soul searching period without the help of anybody except his Almighty God. Guess what, prince Harry chose the tiny kingdom of Lesotho for healing and most surprisingly the Lord answered his prayers. It is by no mistake that the married couple chose Africa for their honeymoon.

Marius Meyer Skryf: Die nuwe idee van die president dat vroue en mans dieselfde betaling moet kry vir dieselfde werk het my volle ondersteuning. Dit gaan die land en belastingbetaler baie geld bespaar en almal is gelukkig want dis onregverdig dat mans meer betaling kry as dames. Betaal die mans dieselfde as wat die dames tans kry en basta met die ongelykheid. Verminder die mans se salaris want hoekom moet hul meer as dames kry? Gestel daar werk 250 mans by 'n munisipaliteit en hul werk 23 dae per maand sal die besparing as volg wees R20.00x 23 dae x 12 maande, 250 x R20.00 x 23 dae x 12 maande = R1,380,000 Hierdie geld kan dan gebruik word om agterstallige ESKOM rekeninge te betaal en nie om nuwe poste te skep nie.
The beautiful flair in and outside the church, the music and dancing, the moving sermon rendered by the American Bishop Dr Curry titled` the Power of love`.It was so fascinating to witness Queen Elizabeth nodding with disbelief how black and whites jointly celebrated the wedding of the two love birds. It was one way of saying these following words to Prince Harry, thank you for treating fellow human beings with dignity and respect. Regardless of colour and different opinions, you saw the importance of breaking the race barrier in terms of marriage and opening the conservative monarchy to the loving and caring mankind. My fellow country men, both black and whites, let us learn and acknowledge the power of love displayed by the great Prince Harry. The Prince fully understood the word of God in 1 CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 13 VERSE I. If I speak in tongues of men and angels, but have no love, its a waste of time. Love is patient Love never fails Love is not boastful Love is not proud Love does not condemn poor and defenceless people Love is not rude and Love is not easily angered I am appealing to all of you, to ask our mighty Christ Jesus to take more of us and fill us with more of him. Love your neighbour and your brother as much as you love yourself. Amen and Amen

Administrasie EK hou die rassisme ding nou al vir ’n baie lang tyd dop. Daar is van alle kante af baie meer rassisme as ooit vantevore, selfs voor die ANC aan bewind gekom het. Die vraag is, hoekom? Na deeglike studie het ek bevind dat daar baie redes voor is. Maar die belangrikste is wanadministrasie. Of dit nou gaan oor dienslewering, instandhouding, die verskaffing van laekoste behuising, goeie mediese
Christians of South Africa (COSA) , Pastor Mosoana Derick - Party Leader writes: Mandatory retirement age for politicians - COSA is convinced that now more than ever South Africa needs to put laws in place a regulate the retirement age for political offices. It cannot be a norm that parliament and our council chambers will be used as conventional retirement centres by the aged. Parliament like any other sectors is so important and often requires high levels of physical and mental ability. Aging is an unavoidable condition that comes with complexities that includes amongst others physical, health and at most mental challenge. It is therefore irresponsible for government to allow such challenges to cripple our law making systems. Most members of parliament and councillors are over the age of 55 and have lost the sense of time, lag behind in technology and lack enthusiasm to learn new things. Their inability to debate, constructively engage the EFF and sense of entitlement developed over time is what makes chambers redundant. These law makers normally approve and note without emphasis irrational recommendations brought to their attention by administrators without dare consideration of consequences or impact analysis. Government should put in place laws that will allow these aged state liabilities to go home without hassle. Their knowledge is of the past, political dynamics have changed and so must politicians.

Ons word kwaad, ons veralgemeen en wittes beweer swartes is hopeloos en swartes beweer maar dis Apartheid wat gelei het tot die probleem. Dink ’n bietjie mooi: As Lydenburg / Mashishing se water, krag en paaie gewerk het en as die hospitaal en munisipaliteit uitnemende diens gelewer het, was hier geen woede en stres in die dorp nie.

toon nie, want wat is daar om die moer in oor te raak? Niemand stel belang hoe die munisipaliteit se werkers en politici lyk en watter kleur hulle is nie. Ons almal stel net belang in ’n stelsel wat werk en wat nie bevooroordeeld is nie. Die erge polarisasie in die land is te wyte aan swak administrasie en klaar. Hieruit broei die ontevredenheid, woede en rassisme. Dit is so maklik vir die ANC om die probleem aan te spreek. Begin by jou administrasie. Moenie die goed breek wat werk nie. Moenie die blaam vir mislukking op ’n ander kleur plaas nie. Hou op verskonings maak en mense aanhits. Doen net jou “job” behoorlik en almal sal glimlag. Kanaliseer jou woede of energie in positiewe landsadministrasie en dinge sal begin regkom. Moenie een onreg van die verlede met een nuwe onreg vergeld nie. Dit werk nie. Dit sal nooit werk nie.

South Africans urged to have their blood pressure tested regularly Craythorne, Cipla spokesperson for Cardiovascular, urges all adults to have their blood pressure checked regularly, and to consult a medical doctor when they suspect that they may suffer from, or potentially be at risk of developing high blood pressure. Patients are considered to have hypertension when their blood pressure exceeds 140 over 90. Raised blood pressure is a major risk factor for chronic heart disease, stroke, and coronary heart disease. Although the majority of patients with hypertension remain asymptomatic, individuals should also consider getting themselves tested for high blood pressure if they experience regular headaches, light-headedness, vertigo, altered vision, or fainting episodes. Once a doctor has made a diagnosis of hypertension, patients need to start tracking their blood pressure levels on a regular basis. There are also a number of lifestyle changes that a doctor may mend
recommend for hypertension sufferers. It is equally important that patients who are prescribed medication to treat their hypertension, do not cease using their medication without consulting their doctors. Hypertension is a growing risk for many South Africans, and, while it is good to follow a healthy lifestyle and adopt the right diet, the only way to be sure of your blood pressure status is to have your blood pressure measured at least once a year.

DID YOU KNOW...
GLOBALLY, it is estimated that approximately 7.5 million people die annually from complications due to high blood pressure (also known as hypertension). The Heart and Stroke Foundation of South Africa estimates that more than one in every three South African adults is currently living with hypertension, a condition that is responsible for as much as 50% of reported strokes and 40% of heart attacks. The biggest challenge in overcoming this is that many people are unaware that they have the condition. Hypertension very rarely presents any symptoms in its early stages, until a severe medical crisis takes place like a heart attack, stroke, or chronic kidney disease. This is why more individuals should be encouraged to make a habit of testing their blood pressure with their doctor or at the pharmacy. In light of World Hypertension Day, recognised on 17 May 2018, Douglas

New Ford Fiesta FORD has released specification and pricing details of its all-new Fiesta. As a major competitor to the top-selling Volkswagen Polo, much is expected of Ford's new B-segment offering. The Blue Oval claims that changes were made purely to improve what was already a good product in the eyes of its customers. The new version has grown somewhat compared with its predecessor (it is 71 mm longer and 13 mm wider), but whereas the front track has increased by 30 mm and the rear by 10 mm, the wheelbase is just 4 mm longer than before. Rear passengers are afforded 16 mm more knee room. The new Fiesta weighs in at between 1 165 kg and 1 206 kg, depending on the derivative and type of transmission specified. Luggage space is a claimed 303 litres and, when the rear seats are folded down, 984 litres of utility space is available. The interior has been updated with new, softer-touch materials and improved build quality, with tighter panel gaps. The Trend derivatives feature a 6.5-inch infotainment system (with Sync3), while the Titanium versions are equipped with an 8-inch touchscreen setup, which includes Sync3 and navigation. The button count on the new Fiesta has more than halved thanks to the touchscreen system and helps produce a cleaner looking fascia. Both spec levels support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A pair of USB ports are availed up front and whereas a 6-speaker sound system is standard on the Trend, the Titanium features a 7-speaker premium audio setup. The new model is based on the same platform as before, but Ford's engineers worked extensively to better insulate the newcomer's cabin from engine noise and vibrations. The firm has further stiffened up the Fiesta's body structure to improve on-
WIELE WHEELS (Motoring) andrec@intekom.co.za 083 626 6305 road comfort, as well as the overall driving experience. Safety has been upped for the new model with a minimum of 4 airbags as standard. It also comes equipped with ABS with EBA and EBD, hill-start assist and electronic stability. Reverse parking sensors are now standard across the model lineup. Compared with the specification of Trend derivatives, Titanium versions come equipped with electronic climate control (instead of manual airconditioning), a leather-trimmed steering wheel and gear knob, heated sports seats, rain-sensing wipers and LED daytime running lights. The 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbopetrol engine has been retained for the new Fiesta range. Both Trend and Titanium models offer 6-speed manual and auto options. Manual Trend and automatic Trend and Titanium derivatives produce 74 kW and 170 Nm of torque, but the manual Titanium derivative's power is increased to 92 kW (although peak torque is unchanged at 170 Nm). The turbodiesel 1.5-litre Fiesta is only available as a manual and delivers 63 kW and 175 Nm of torque. Claimed fuel economy for 1.0 derivatives in manual guise is 4.3 L/100 km, with the autos said to consume an average of 5.2 L/100 km. The diesel sips just 3.3 L/100 km with its manual 'box. All new Fiesta derivatives come standard with Ford Protect, comprising a 4-year/120 000 km warranty, 3-year/unlimited distance roadside assistance and 5year/unlimited km corrosion warranty. A 4-year/60 000 km service plan is included, with service intervals at 15 000 km. 1.0 EcoBoost Trend 6MT R261 900 1.0 EcoBoost Trend 6AT R277 300 1.5 TDCi Trend 6MT R292 500 1.0 EcoBoost Titanium 6MT R295 900 1.0 EcoBoost Titanium 6AT R310 600 Cars.co.za

New Nissan Patrol V8 THE Nissan Patrol has been around for more than 60 years. This iteration encompasses everything Nissan has to offer in an SUV, both in terms of in-car technology and off-road ability. Seven seats are wrapped in 2.8-tons of metal and powered by a 5.6litre petrol V8, which powers all four wheels and enables the Patrol to tow a 3.5-tonne load with ease. On the inside, the Patrol features a plethora of safety systems and updated onboard technology, all wrapped in a mix of leather and wood trim. As it weighs nearly 3-tonnes, there isn’t much in the way of SUVs that can match the presence of the Patrol – it’s a huge chunk of machinery. Ground clearance is 272 mm, and it takes a bit of effort to climb aboard and pull yourself into
the capacious cabin. The beating heart of the Patrol is the 5.6-litre V8 under its bonnet, which is mated with a 7speed automatic gearbox. The motor delivers peak outputs of 298 kW and 560 Nm of torque and because there’s no turbo to spool up, throttle response is quicker than you might expect. There’s also something to be said for the admiring glances that the Patrol attracts; people still show respect to a towering vehicle with a V8 badge on its back! Claimed fuel consumption is 14.6 L/100 km, but you are more likely to see 16L/100 km if you venture near a city or indulge in serious off-roading. On open stretches of freeway, we
recorded 12.5L/100 km as our best return. At least you can get decent range thanks to the 140-litre capacity of the fuel tank. Its off-road credentials are undeniable and things are made simpler with on-the-fly changes from auto(2h) to 4-high and 4-low modes. There is also a terrain selector switch that lets you adjust the traction control and off-road systems to deal with rocks, snow, sand and tarmac. The leather seats are supportive and provide excellent comfort over long distances. There’s loads of space in the rear; in fact, even the 3rd row of seats can accommodate adults. The DVD player in the centre of the dash alludes to the old school design of the Patrol. The rest of the cabin, wrapped in leather, is better to look at and touch. The refrigerated centre console is great for keeping drinks cold and having a total of 9 cup holders positioned throughout the cabin is certainly a boon. A pair of USB ports are provided up front and there is entertainment in the form of screens mounted in the headrests for rear passengers. The infotainment system could benefit from a higher-resolution screen, but at least it comes with niceties such as navigation and displays 360-degree camera angles, the latter of which makes parking the mammoth Nissan a touch easier. The suspension tuning on the Patrol is softer than you’ll get on almost any modern SUV, the off-road bias dictates that as there’s loads of wheel travel available in adverse conditions and with no air suspension, there’s less to go wrong. That means you hardly feel gravel roads as you power over them. The steering is on the lighter side, again, because of the off-road bias where swinging the wheel, often while stationary, needs to be quick and easy. Out on the open road, the light steering doesn’t affect the Patrol as much as it does in the Land Cruiser or the FJ Cruiser, which seem to get their wobbles on at speed. The Patrol
remains sturdy and controllable. Adaptive cruise control is probably the most useful feature you’ll use on long journeys and takes the hassle out of engaging and disengaging cruise control continuously. Then there are additions such as drowsiness detection, blind-spot detection, torque vectoring to help stabilize the Patrol around corners and lane departure warning –which you will probably turn off the moment the roads start to become devoid of visible markings. The Patrol SUV is only available in one model: the 5.6-litre V8 LE Premium. It retails for R1 31 0900 perfectly matching the Land Cruiser 200, which is only available as a diesel. The Patrol comes with a good 6-year/150 000 km warranty and a 3-year/90 000 km service plan. Service intervals are every 15 000 km. The Nissan Patrol is old school, but infused with a bit of new technology to keep the overlander contemporary. And, they say that with fewer gimmicks and electronics, there’s less to go wrong, especially when you’re venturing deep into the bundu. The fuel consumption is significant, but that won't come as a surprise to this Nissan's target market... In order to endow the Patrol's cabin with a decidedly premium ambience, Nissan thought it best to scatter wood trim everywhere. It hasn't quite done the trick, but at least there’s still excellent space for people and things to be stored in the cabin. Carmag.co.za

Karatekas presteer SMRT Southern Africa - and the Eastern Limb Mines Golfers open their hearts! THE Lydenburg branch of Sandvik Mining and Rock Technology Southern Africa held their annual Golf Day at the Lydenburg Golf Club on Saturday 12 May 2018. Players were made up of key customers in the Eastern Limb who participated to raise funds for AMA Wheelies, a Home that looks after disabled and underprivileged people in Lydenburg.

Sandvik was the sponsor for the day and together with their customers gave a donation of non-perishable food and two blue wildebeest to AMA Wheelies. The day was a resounding success and fun was had by all! Sandvik wishes to thank all customers that participated for their support and contribution to making this day a memorable and successful day!!
