Spreuke 11:31: Die regverdige kry hier op aarde wat hom toekom; net so seker die goddelose en die sondaar.


By Erin Winick While 3-D printing has been around for decades, it has remained largely in the domain of hobbyists and designers producing one-off prototypes. And printing objects with anything other than plastics—in particular, metal—has been expensive and painfully slow. Now, however, it’s becoming cheap and easy enough to be a potentially practical way of manufacturing parts. If widely adopted, it could change the way we mass-produce many products. In the short term, manufacturers wouldn’t need to maintain large inventories—they could simply print an object, such as a replacement part for an aging car, whenever someone needs it. In the longer term, large factories that mass-produce a limited range of parts might be replaced by smaller ones that make a wider variety, adapting to customers’ changing needs. The technology can create lighter, stronger parts, and complex shapes that aren’t possible with conventional metal fabrication methods. It can also provide more precise control of the microstructure of metals. In 2017, researchers from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory announced they had developed a 3-D-printing method for creating stainless-steel parts twice as strong as traditionally made ones. Also in 2017, 3-D-printing company Markforged, a small startup based outside Boston, released the first 3-D metal printer for under $100,000. Another Boston-area startup, Desktop Metal, began to ship its first metal prototyping machines in December 2017. It plans to begin selling larger machines, designed for manufacturing, that are 100 times faster than older metal printing methods. The printing of metal parts is also getting easier. Desktop Metal now offers software that generates designs ready for 3-D printing. Users tell the program the specs of the object they want to print, and the software produces a computer model suitable for printing. GE, which has long been a proponent of using 3-D printing in its aviation products, has a test version of its new metal printer that is fast enough to make large parts. The company plans to begin selling the printer this year ( 2018).

"Polaroid moment"… ek dog die heeltyd, dit is 'n "Kodak moment"… maar dit is blykbaar in die ou tyd gewees. Ek het jou waarlik my naam nou sommer in een week 2 keer met 'n plank geslaan. Nommer een… ek gee die TV summier skuld, vir nommer een… Klonkie moes ook op die Worcestershire sous bottel lees, of daar wilde oesters in is. Ek is allergies vir mossels en oesters ens. en dit van die uittreksel kyk en nie die volle episode nie. Hy vra my nogal: "Ma, waar hoor Ma die storie?" Ek sê: "Hulle het dit nounet gesê, en jy weet ek is allergies vir oesters". Hy gaan haal maar vir bottel uit en lees die inhoud deur, en verseker my, die bottel wat ons het… nogal bekende maak, het nie oesters in nie.

Ek sien my kind kan nie sy ore glo nie, maar om die vrede te bewaar, doen hy toe nou maar wat ek vra. Gisteraand kyk ek die hele episode, en gedorie, ek moet hom nog vertel, ek het weer kat aan stert beet gehad. Nommer twee… wel van nommer twee herstel ek nog… Ek bekruip die bure se tarentale wat elke middag kom nagsê voor hulle gaan inkruip. My vriendin het my nie geglo nie, totdat hulle gister so raas dat ons nie mekaar kan hoor nie, en Klonkie sy TV al harder moet sit. Hy kon dit nie meer hou nie... "Ma, sal Ma asseblief vir die tarentale kom nagsê, dat hulle kan gaan slaap… ek kan nie 'n woord hoor op die TV nie". Ek sê toe nag, en hier daal die stilte oor die werf. Wel, my vriendin is oortuig, maar ek besluit die bewyse moet gestaaf word, met 'n foto… So 'n uur terug, bekruip ek die spannetjie om 'n foto te neem, en daar trap ek in 'n gat vol modder. Die agterplaas is nog nie heel droog na die reëns nie. Ek lê vir 'n oomblik doodstil, en begin toe die "check list" deurgaan..."Kan ek my tone beweeg?” "check"… nou is dit.. “kan ek my arms beweeg?” "check"… en so hardloop ek hom deur, en toe kom ek by my "ego"… Nope, hom kan ek nie as ongeskonde afmerk nie, hy is in "flarre" gebreek… Ek moes stort, hare was en skoon aantrek… en jou wrintie, ek moet weer probeer om 'n foto te neem. Ons lewens is mos ook maar so 'n "check list", en ons moet hom gereeld deurgaan en seker maak ons is nog in lyn met die Here Jesus se wil vir ons. Bly ongeskonde die res van die naweek asseblief. Groete van huis tot huis. Rika 3

The Invention The first cheese grater was invented way back in the 1540s, by a man named François Boullier. It was invented so that hard cheese could still be used properly. The grater that he used and made is made of pewter, which is a soft metal. It is now sat in Museum du Havre in France. The threat of disease in meat made this invention extremely popular with farmers as they turned their focus to dairy products; because of this, there was A LOT of cheese in France, and a large amount went hard over time, thus popularising the cheese grater.

The Ferrari 250 GTO is well-known as one of the most valuable cars on Earth, and quite rare with just 39 examples built. It's a reputation backed by incredible sale prices, one of the most recent being an auction record of $38 million at Bonhams' Monterey auction in 2014. Not all of them cross the auction block, and one reportedly was sold in a private sale for a stunning $70 million, thought to be the highest price ever paid for a car. The price and the sale was confirmed by Fox News after the news outlet talked to a Ferrari historian. It was reportedly sold to American businessman. The duPont Registry reported on the sale a little earlier, having learned of the sale in a forum, and notes that the buyer may have been David MacNeil, CEO of WeatherTech, the company that makes and sells various floor mats and cargo-area covers. MacNeil is a Ferrari collector and driver and may well show and drive the car in vintage races and rallies. Not only does this price exceed the last auction price, it exceeds the last rumored private sale price. Back in 2013, a 250 GTO reportedly sold for $52 million. That particular car shared some of the racing heritage of this new record setter, including a win in the Tour de France, a race that was commemorated in the name of the Ferrari F12 TdF.

By Rachel Swatman

Jeison Orlando Rodríguez Hernández from Maracay, Venezuela has been presented with a new Guinness World Records certificate today, thanks to his US size 26 feet. The 22-year-old has boasted the Largest feet on a living person – male since 2014, when his right foot measured 40.1 cm and his left foot reached 39.6 cm. Jeison contacted Guinness World Records via our Facebook page and an official adjudication and photoshoot was arranged for that year’s book. Four years later, Jeison’s feet have grown to a staggering 40.55 cm and 40.47 cm respectively. The ceremony took place at the shoe store Wessels in Vreden, Germany, where Jeison was picking up some new shoes which were custom made by owner Georg Wessel. Jeison has to get his footwear specially made because his feet are far too large for regular shoes. Guinness World Records adjudicator Lucia Sinigagliesi said: "We’re very happy to meet Jeison here in Germany and honour him with a Guinness World Records title. He achieved the record in 2015 and him beating his own record and coming to Germany was the perfect opportunity for us to join him and hand over his certificate in person." Jeison, who is 220 cm tall and a keen basketball player, was very happy to receive his new shoes and Guinness World Records certificate: "Finding shoes in my size was never easy. I already struggled to find my size when I was 16 years old. Guinness World Records made me appreciate myself more, especially the value of the size of my feet. Today I’m proud to have the biggest feet on earth." It was around his ninth birthday that Jeison realised his feet were larger than his friends. They would often compare sizes, with Jeison coming out on top each time. However, he was often teased for the size of his feet as well. He struggled to find shoes his size in his home city of Maracay so he was forced to wear sandals made of old tires and fabric, before expert shoemaker Georg Wessels offered his help. Georg has also made shoes for Sultan Kösen, the our Tallest living man record holder, whose feet are slightly smaller than Jeison’s. The world’s Largest feet ever, however, belonged to the Tallest man ever, Robert Wadlow (USA, 1918–40), who wore US size 37AA (UK size 36) shoes, which equates to 47 cm.

Preventing and coping with the worst kind of pain

Migraine is a moderate to severe form of headache, with recurring bouts. The pain usually manifests itself on one side of the head and described as throbbing. It is associated with other symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light or sound and occasional visual disturbances. Obviously, it is more than just a headache. "Migraines are an interplay of genetics and environment. Their frequency and severity is determined by genetic predisposition, and the number and extent of environmental triggers an individual is exposed to," says Dr Rajashekar Reddi, principal consultant, neurology, at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, New Delhi. A migraine is surprisingly common---about one in five women and one in 15 men experience it. It's not clear why it's more common in women, though it's thought to be linked to hormonal changes around the menstrual cycle. "These kind of migraines are known as catamenial migraines," says Reddi. There are different types of migraines: those with an aura and those without them. The 'aura' is a set of symptoms---visual disturbances like flashes or shimmering light and blind spots in your field of vision---that are specific to an individual that warns of an impending attack. There are situations where a migraine aura may come on, but the actual headache may follow later. The attack's frequency varies for each individual, with some people suffering several a week and others free of them for months or years. WHAT CAUSES IT? The exact cause of migraines isn't fully understood, though it's often thought to be an abnormal brain activity that affects blood vessels in the brain. However, it's not clear how or why this happens. Many people can identify triggers to a migrainefoods like cheese, particularly with the food additive tyramine, caffeine in drinks or chocolate as well as alcohol. "It is best to maintain a headache diary to identity one's triggers. This will help a patient make lifestyle and behavioural changes that would help reduce the number of attacks," Reddi suggests. Low blood sugar and hormonal changes associated with periods can also bring them on, as can psychological triggers such as stress or depression. Some people find that sleep-inducing medication or an oral contraceptive pill makes them more susceptible to an attack. Other triggers include sleep deprivation and erratic eating patterns. HOW IS IT TREATED? Unfortunately, there is no cure for migraines. However, over-the-counter painkillers do help. It's best to take these at the onset of the symptoms, rather than waiting for a full-blown attack. "Do keep in mind that sometimes medicine overuse can also cause a rebound headache. The best way to tackle migraines is through a combination of preventive therapy, lifestyle modification and medication," adds Reddi. The painkiller triptan is often prescribed by doctors as it contracts swollen blood vessels, which are thought to induce migraines. Anti-sickness medication helps as well. If none of these ease the pain, then it's time to consult a specialist. "A specialist may prescribe beta-blockers or tricyclic antidepressants or anticonvulsant drugs. Botox is also recommended for individuals who have chronic daily headaches (CDH) that occur for about 15 days every month for three months," says Reddi. WHAT CAN THE PATIENT DO? Many patients find avoiding triggers is the easiest way of managing their migraines. During an attack, most people find lying in a dark, quiet room helpful. For others, a cool relaxing shower works better. Sometimes, placing an ice pack on the nape of one's neck eases the pain. Usually what works is taking all the above-mentioned steps at the same time. It's also important to realize when you need to seek help immediately. Symptoms including paralysis or weakness on one side of the body or slurred or confused speech are indications of a stroke. If the headache is a sudden, blinding one, it could be a possible bleed on the brain, which needs immediate medical attention. A headache accompanied by a stiff neck and/or a rash may turn out to be meningitis. In these situations, it is best to rush to a doctor. ---team RD (UK) with inputs by Gagan Dhillon

Trauma Terapie Unitas www.connectivetherapy.co.za Vadersdag is om die draai, maar baie keer kan ‘n mens voel dat Vadersdag elke paar dae behoort te wees! Andersins, behoort jy ‘n koopbewys te kry vir Terapie. Vaderskap is defnitief nie ‘n pos, op ‘n lae vlak nie…. As navorsers sou wou bepaal wie die mees kritiese wese op aarde is, sou hulle almal saam stem, dat dit ‘n seun van so tussen 16 en 25 jaar sal wees. As so ‘n jongman sy Pa of Ma kan vas pen vir 30 - 60 min van Kritieke “Leiding” is dit ‘n groot prestasie vir daardie ouer, om net ‘n deel van sy selfbeeld te kan behou. Hierdie sessies onder leiding van jou seun, is die tipe belewenis wat ‘n ou op jou lysie plaas as “ONGELOOFLIK!” en nie werklik op die lys van “hoogs gewaardeerd” nie. In elk geval nie totdat dieselfde boeta skielik kordaat en manhaftig aankondig dat hy jou verlaat as gevolg van jou tekortkominge, die onmoontlikheid daarvan om saam met jou te leef en natuurlik alles wat jy al reeds vir 100 jaar verkeerd gedoen het nie. (Ja! Selfs al is die mannetjie net 0/25. Dit is een van die wereld se grootste wonders!) Nou ja! Hoe maak ‘n mens? (Liewe Tannie Esme en Solly?) Dit kan enige rustige ouer verander in ‘n beheer-maniak, aangehits deur vrees en angs. Al wat daar is om te doen, is om jou geliefde seun, die geskenk wat jy die graagste sou wou he, te gee: Respek, Aanvaarding, Waardering, Begrip en Insig, Liefde en Seen….(Mens noem die verskynsel ‘n belegging, want dit kom terug met rente, maar is ongelukkig nie op die JSE gelys nie.) Nadat jy dus nou besef, dat jou seun reg is en dat hy inderdaad beter is as jy - EN as jou vrou! - (Skokkend!) - bloot omdat hy die beste is van jou en die beste is van haar, saamgeweef deur die mooiste liefdes drome, uit ‘n wonderlike en ongelooflike seisoen…. Jou seun - die liefdes monument - wat selfs op sy slegste, jou asem wegslaan in ongeloof en jou altyd verstom in verwondering en dankbaarheid. So maak ‘n mens: In stappe, soos op SABC 2: • Gee jou seun in gebed terug in God se hande vir bewaring en leiding. • Maak die vername jong, opkomende, professionele, wereld-wonder bymekaar vir ‘n manne gesprek, iewers alleen en spesiaal. • Hier kan jy die volgende met groot respek verduidelik: • Verduidelik vir hom dat jy sy drome en ideale insien en verstaan. • (Ook sy ander idees, al is jy eintlik te dom en agterlik om dit ooit te verstaan….) • Laat hom verstaan jy aanvaar sy behoeftes en dat jy begrip het daarvoor, dat hy voel hy moet sy eie lewe leef en die beste maak daarvan. • Natuurlik waardeer jy sy eie inisiatiewe en is jy ook trots op hom dat hy dit nastreef. Verseker hom dat hy vry is om te gaan, sonder verwyte. • Verseker hom dat jy sy grootste aanhanger sal bly. • Wens hom alle seen en sterkte toe. • Verseker hom dat hy altyd welkom is, waar jy ookal is, in die wereld. • Herinner hom daaraan om gereeld te bel (al weet jy dit sal net wees om te vra dat jy asb terug bel - iewers 3 uur een oggend.) As jy die stappe suksesvol gevolg het, sal jy opmerk dat jou seun voor sy vertrek (in sy vreugdevolle-nuwe vryheid), jou aankyk asof jy die wêreld se grootste aap is. Moenie paniekerig raak nie…. Hy is heeltemal korrek in sy aanname. My oom het altyd gesê: “Ek is wel ‘n aap, maar ek is ‘n OU aap.” Een wat al die trix ken, omdat hy dit self ontwerp het. Dus Pa: Gaan sit rustig agteroor en glimlag in jou mou. Want, iewers, eendag sal die aap wel uit mou gelaat word en almal sal dan verstaan. God bind kinders vas aan hulle ouers, met ewige naelstringe wat werk op dieselfde prinsiep as ‘n bungie-rek. So gou boeta dink sy einde is naby, sal hy so vinnig terug ruk huis toe, dat sy kop sal spin. Sy kop sal inderdaad so spin, dat hy eintlik die huis waardeer, wanneer hy weer daarheen “opgeruk” het. Jy is die perfekte Pa vir jou kind, want God self het jou gekies vir hierdie belangrike werk. Gee vir jouself dieselfde geskenke as wat jy vir jou seun gegee het. Waardeer jouself en geniet die vrede voor jou geliefde wêreld-wonder terug keer en moedeloos begin vra vir advies. Ps. Wees dankbaar dat jy al laas jaar hierdie tyd, jou flikkerlig aangesit het en nou in vrede kan afdraai na jou nuwe begin. Watter kind sal nie ‘n wêreld-wonder wees met so ‘n intelligente PA nie!

Vadersdag is 'n viering om die belangrike rol wat vaders in die samelewing speel te erken en vereer. Volgens historici het die tradisie om vaderskap te vereer, reeds duisende jare gelede ontstaan. In Babilon het 'n seun genaamd Elmesu, die heel eerste ”vadersdagkaart” gemaak, deur ‘n boodskap aan sy vader op ‘n kleitablet uit te kap. In sy boodskap het Elmesu sy vader 'n lang en gesonde lewe toegewens. Die tradisie van die moderne viering van Vadersdag soos wat ons dit ken, het sy oorsprong in die vorige eeu en verskeie mense word vir die bevordering van die saak om Vadersdag as jaarlikse instelling te vier gekrediteer, met Grace Golden Clayton en Sonora Louise Smart Dodd as die mees prominente bakens. Die eerste moderne viering van 'n "Vadersdag" is gehou op 5 Julie 1908, in Fairmont, West Virginia, in die Williams Memorial Metodiste Kerk, nou bekend as die Sentrale Verenigde Metodiste Kerk. Grace Golden Clayton het gerou oor die verlies van haar pa toe die Monongah Mynramp gedurende Desember 1907 die lewens van 361 mans geëis het. Die afsterwe van 250 vaders het byna ‘n duisend kinders vaderloos gelaat. Clayton het voorgestel dat haar pastoor, Robert Thomas Webb, al die vaders eer op die Sondag naaste aan die verjaarsdag van haar pa, Fletcher Golden. Sonora Smart Dodd, gebore in Arkansas, het haar eie viering van Vadersdag in 1910 ingestel. Die eerste fees was op 19 Junie 1910 in Spokane, Washington gehou. Haar pa, die Burgeroorlogveteraan, William Jackson Smart, was 'n enkel ouer wat sy ses kinders grootgemaak het in Spokane, Washington. Alhoewel sy aanvanklik die datum 5 Junie, haar pa se verjaarsdag, voorgestel het, het die organiseerders nie genoeg tyd gehad om reëlings te tref nie, en die viering is uitgestel tot die derde Sondag van Junie. Die viering van Vadersdag het baie gewild geword in die VSA, soveel so dat president Woodrow Wilson die fees in 1916 goedgekeur het. President Calvin Coolidge het ook die idee ondersteun, maar dit was President Lyndon Johnson wat in 'n presidensiële proklamasie (1966) verklaar het dat die derde Sondag van Junie voortaan as Vadersdag gevier sou word. President Richard Nixon het in 1972 die permanente nasionale viering van Vadersdag op die derde Sondag van Junie in die wetboeke laat opteken. Vadersdag het 'n uiters gewilde fees geword en vaders word wêreldwyd deur hul kinders op hierdie dag bederf. 15
