INSIDE HORRIFIC: Many people lost their lives during the Easter Holidays (PHOTO: SUPPLIED)

EASTER WEEKEND

ROAD DEATHS IN 2014: 190

ROAD DEATHS The number of fatalities over the Easter weekend increased nearly 50% compared to the same period last year. This alarming rise in the death rate was revealed by Transport Minister Dipuo Peters at a media briefing held at the Road Traffic Management Corporation’s offices on 8 April. According to the Road Traffic Management Corporation, major routes into Gauteng were extremely busy on 6 April as the long weekend was drawing to an end. News24 reported that spokesperson Simon Zwane said that between 13:30 and 14:30, around 1700 vehicles had come into Gauteng from the N3 and around 2000 travelled on the N1 from Limpopo. In Ekurhuleni, three people – one driver

and two passengers – were killed in two accidents over the Easter weekend. A further 57 people were arrested for drunk driving. The preliminary death toll on SA’s roads was 287. This eclipses the figure of 193 last year and is also more than the figure of 241 recorded over the Easter weekend of 2013. The total number of fatal accidents over the holiday was 208, with the majority, 38, occurring in KwaZulu-Natal. The province also had the highest number of fatalities at 55, with 44 people losing their lives in road crashes in Limpopo and 38 in Gauteng. The Eastern Cape recorded 35 fatalities, with 34 in Mpumalanga, 28 in the North West and 26 in the Western Cape. Pumulani toll plaza along the N1 recorded the highest number of vehicles an hour over the weekend when

4,494 vehicles passed through it between 10:00 and 11:00 on 6 April. Peters added that there was a significant change in the time periods during which people drove over the weekend. “Most of the road users opted to travel after dusk, which on its own brings about risks of fatigue, speeding, unroadworthy vehicles and drunken driving.” “These carnages and unwarranted misery brought about by irresponsible and lackadaisical behaviour can and should be avoided,” the Minister said. She emphasised that motorists had to take responsibility. “The figures show that South Africans don’t want to learn. We cannot be at peace with ourselves when we do not take responsibility.”

tame TIMES.co.za With everything that’s been happening in South Africa over the last week, I was feeling extremely negative towards the country. Ready to pack my bags and move anywhere but here. Then I spent some time with friends during the week, and on Saturday we went out to the lookout point in the Eco Estate. I realised again that we have beautiful sunsets and looking out over Alberton’s lights, I felt at home. My friends are here, my family is here - this is home. We’ve set out this week to show our readers opportunities to get involved within the community we call home. We are still accepting nominations for the tame Community Hero, such as Willie van Wyk, nominated by Jomarie Potgieter. You can make a big difference by getting involved with the EPIC Foundation, not only during Sexual Assault Awareness Month, but at any given time. And to make your home feel like your own, we’ve included a DIY feature with some great tips and life hacks. We wish our readers a blessed week!

Community Hero of the week Ek wil graag ‘n storie met jou deel – daar is regtig nog heroes daar buite. Ons was die langnaweek weg na Durban toe en het Maandagmiddag teruggekeer Alberton toe. So 160km van Alberton af, 19:00 die aand het my kar ons in die steek gelaat en sy clutch het gebreek, my kar wou niks weet van huis toe gaan nie. My vriendin Lizanne Joubert se kar kon my kar nie sleep huis toe nie want die karretjie se engine is te klein, so ons moes vinnig hulp kry. Ek het my versekering gebel en hulle kon ons nie help nie. AA kon ons nie help nie, want ek is nie ‘n lid nie. Enige ander tow trokke kos my R2500 net om ons huis toe te sleep en ek het nie die geld gehad nie. Ons enige uitweg toe 20:00 die aand was toe om ons vriende te vra vir hulp. Lizanne het haar boetie Tjaart Coetzee gebel en gevra kan hy ons nie help nie. Hy het toe op die CPF groep gevra of iemand nie kan help nie. Toe het Willie Van Wyk dadelik geantwoord en Tjaart

Willie van Wyk is genomineer deur Jomarie Potgieter laat weet hy is bereid om te kom help. Willie, Tjaart en Reg het toe al die pad van Alberton af gery om ons te kom help. Ons het ‘n uur en ‘n half vir hulle gewag. 21:30 die aand is hulle daar en help ons om die kar te sleep. Willie het ons gesleep op ‘n ander pad agv die verkeer en ons veilig by die huis aangebring 00:30 die oggend. Willie van Wyk is waarlik ‘n hero om so laat in die aand te kom help en sy vrou en twee kindertjies by die huis te los. Ek, Werner Joubert, Lizanne Joubert, Christiaan Potgieter en Belinda Potgieter is waarlik dankbaar vir hom om tot ons redding te kom. Dit was vir ons een scary experience, maar Willie van Wyk het regtig tot ons redding gekom.

Ons laaste groet aan Stephen R Rossouw Stephen Ronald Rossouw is gebore in Kaapstad op die 15de Oktober 1934 waar hy as Predikant se seun grootgeword het in ‘n gesin met 4 kinders. Hy voltooi sy studies en kwalifiseer as tuinboukundige en op 1 Julie 1957 word hy aangestel as die jongste hoof van Parke en Ontspanning van Alberton Munisipalitiet, en begin sy beroep as getroude man met 2 kinders, Maureen en Ronald. In 1967 na die tragiese dood van sy eerste vrou en dogtertjie, Charmaine (2.5 jaar) trou hy met weduwee Mercia Janse Van Rensburg. Uit haar eerste huwelik is 3 kinders gebore, Dawie, Heleez en Henk en hulle word deel van die Rossouw gesin. Hulle was Augustus 2014 48 jaar getroud. Vanaf 1 April 1966 tot 30 November 1973 verlaat hy die munsipaliteit as entrepreneur en begin hy verskeie suksesvolle besighede onder andere ‘n vervoer besigheid, eiendomsagentskap asook ‘n landskap argitektuur onderneming in Alberton. 30 November 1975 nader die Alberton munsipaliteit hom om terug te kom en hy aanvaar die aanbod. Hy word weer aangestel as Hoof van Parke en Ontspanning en in 1980 kry hy ook die Reinigings afdeling by. In daardie tyd ontwikkel hy Alberton begrafplaas as die top begrafplaas van alle munisipalitiete in Gauteng. Verder was hy verantwoordelik vir die onderhandelinge met Johannesburg Stadsraad om die grond vir Kromvlei begrafplaas te verkry en ontwikkel hy dit ook. Sy hoogte punte was in 1982 waar hy die groot geleentheid gekry het om as gasheer op te tree by ‘n simposium van die Instituut van Parke en Administrasie. Die geleentheid was gewoonlik slegs in groot stede gehou en is hy dus verantwoordelik dat Alberton die nodige erkenning en roem verkry het. Nadat die burgermeester, wyle Mnr Douglas Harris die verrigtinge geopen het, het Mnr Rossouw ook die hoof referaat

gelewer wat vir hom ‘n groot eer was. Met groot sukses onthaal hy 550 afgevaardiges wat landswyd verteenwoordigers is. Dit het ingesluit raadslede van die verskeie stede, hoofde van departemente oor die hele republiek van Suid Afrika asook hulle burgermeesters. In sy loopbaan word Stephen Rossouw ook deur die stadsraad van Alberton aangestel as die hoof van die Veiligheidskomitee van 12 departemente. Nog ‘n mylpaal vir hom was toe hy na sy uitstekende leierskap ‘n vyfster toekenning vir al 12 die departemente verwerf het en toe hy die 5 ster toekenning namens die Alberton Stadsraad in die superbowl in Sun City ontvang het. Hy het ook sy leierskap uitgeleef as selleier van Alberton Lewenssentrum waar hy baie geliefd onder sy lede was. Dis met groot leed dat hy op 1 April 2015 na ‘n lang siekbed sy vrou, kinders, 6 kleinkinders en 7 agterklein kinders agterlaat. Ons liefste man, pa en oupa se herhinneringe sal ons in ons harte soos ‘n skat bewaar. Totsiens is nie die einde, maar net dat ons jou sal mis totdat ons mekaar weer ontmoet . . .

District Meeting great success

The Methodist Church of South Africa Highveld and Swaziland District Women’s Auxiliary held their 45th Annual District Meeting at eMseni Christian conference Centre on 27 and 28 March with the theme “The Armour of God.” Irene Campbell was presented with a beautiful orchid as they honoured her for attending her 45th District Meeting, without a break. They were also honoured to have Rev Luvuyo Sifo who spoke about “Transforming Discipleship” in his address on Friday encouraging them to be people of the light, to carry the light for God and to share the Good News. Beth Kok (District President from Central District) addressed the ladies and handed out gifts to everyone. Rev Phidian Matsepe conducted the Commissioning Service where they were joined by Mrs Mary Nqaba (President Women’s Manyano), Nokwanda Nyobole (President Young Women’s Manyano),

Oscorina Tshabalala (Vice President Young Women’s Manyano) and Khongelwa Siyumba (C.C.S.). They welcomed Mary Ellerbeck from Kempton Park Women’s Auxiliary as the new District President and said goodbye to Judy Allan after her two years of dedicated service. Deacon Dr Vernon van Wyk inspired them to be like “fresh herbs” and gave a breakdown of different herbs and their meanings, some of which included: Lavender = Devotion, Sage = Wisdom, Tarragon = Lasting, Thyme = Strength. They also had fun during the two days starting with Gareth Lush, a ventriloquist who kept them laughing and wanting more. Each branch, including the District Executive, performed a short skit which they all enjoyed. The District Meeting is always a time of sharing, fun, fellowship and meeting friends again – at the same time remembering that they are all ‘Sisters in Christ’ doing His work.

SPEAK UP! Metro seeks community’s comments on draft budget and development plan

Proposed new tariffs, the new valuation roll, credit control and indigent benefits as well as budget proposals related to capital projects across the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality are expected to dominate discussions at the Metro’s Draft Integrated Development and Planning (IDP) and Budget public consultative meetings to be held over the next two weeks. Residents of Ekurhuleni and various other stakeholders will have an opportunity to comment on the developmental programme of the Metro as contained in the IDP for 2015/16 and the Budget for the next three years. Integrated development planning is a process through which municipalities prepare a strategic development plan which extends over a five-year period. This then guides and informs all planning, budgeting, management and decision-making processes in the municipality. The municipality undertook a consultative process on the review of its Integrated Development Plan with ward councillors and ward committee members in September last year. The inputs received through the consultative process formed the basis of the draft IDP 2015/16 and draft multi-year Budget for 2015/16 - 2017/18 that were tabled at the Council meeting of January 29 2015 for the purpose of consultation with stakeholders. Before the draft IDP and draft Budget are

approved by Council in May 2015, the acceptability of the proposals must now be tested with our communities. From April 14 to 22, Ekurhuleni will hold IDP and Budget meetings in all its 20 Customer Care Areas at 18:00 to discuss the draft documents with communities. Council will brief stakeholders on the proposed developmental programme and allow communities to comment on the proposals. This year, these IDP and Budget meetings will also be combined with the Mayoral Izimbizo to give progress reports on service delivery issues. Over and above these meetings, stakeholders can, from now until April 30, access the draft IDP and draft Budget documents which are open for comment. These can be viewed electronically at any time on www.ekurhuleni.gov.za; or at public libraries, pay points and Customer Care Centres during office hours. Comments can be filled in and dropped into “Budget Tips” boxes at the mentioned offices or emailed to budgettips@ekurhuleni.gov. za . Public enquiries can also be made by contacting the Metro’s Strategy Planning and Support office on 011 999 6760/1/2/3. Wednesday 15 April Alberton 18:00 Bracken Park Hall.

speelgoed, klein bybeltjies asook chippies op te maak vir ons Paashaas Projek en dit dan aan die behoeftige kinders by verskillende plaaslike laerskole uit te deel. Die Round Table is ook ŉ nie winsgewende organisasie van jong mans wat hul beywer om gemeenskapswerk te verrig. Hulle is baie betrokke by liefdadigheidsorganisasies ens. Indien daar jong mans is wat graag betrokke wil raak by die Round Table kan hul gerus vir Leigh kontak by 082 558 9375.

Advertorial

A career in draughting and design through the African Academy Imagine seeing the building in whose design you played a part become a realit y, or imagine driving over a steel structured bridge that you helped design. These realities all started out as the drawings of the draughtsperson, who turns the ideas of the architect, engineer and the builder into a constructive, detailed plan. From rough sketches and notes, the skilled draughtsperson provides all the fine details and visual guidelines, according to specifications provided by engineers, architects and surveyors. With a flair for drawing and working with computers, the student enters into the field of computer-aided drawing (CAD) and draughting. And with special interests in architecture, mining, manufacturing, engineering, design, the electrical or civil fields, steel detailing or mechanical – as a draughtsperson you will achieve great success with the relevant skills and training in your area of choice. The African Academy is dedicated to the upliftment of skills in draughting and related industries, and provides training in the specialised scarce-skilled area of computer-aided design and draughting. “The main objective of our growth and development initiative is to create greater capacity for additional unemployed individuals to access education and training, thereby placing greater number of unemployed individuals in industry,” said managing director, Kubera Naidoo.

Students need Maths, Science and Technical Drawing to enter this career. However, the African Academy has catered for those individuals who have a passion for the drawing field and wish to study draughting but do not have these subjects by offering a three-month Technical Draughting subject and outsourcing the Mathematics and Science to a partnering college on the same premises. One can then progress to the NQF 4 Draughting programme, which comprises a year’s study and covers all the different disciplines of engineering, such as building, mechanical, electrical draughting and structural steel detailing. All of this is done on computer with the draughting software. Once in employment, students can then further progress their skills by studying the various programmes offered by the Academy on a level equivalent to the NQF Level 5, such as Structural Steelwork Detailing, Architectural Technology and Piping Draughting. To enable more students to study in the field, engineering draughting and design programmes from the African Academy are also now available nationally through distance learning. Gain the advantage of a future in an alternative career in draughting, which is registered as a scarce skill in South Africa. For further information contact the African Academy on 011 914 4340 or visit www.africanacademy.co.za

moet daarvan hou. Hy dink nog hy doen my ‘n guns en boek my vir ‘n dag by ‘n spa in. Ek dink dit was eintlik net sy manier om van my ontslae te raak sodat hy kan gholf speel. Ek is toe nou maar spa toe, die man het mos nou soveel moeite gedoen. Dit is nou ‘n maand later en ek sukkel steeds om die naels af te kry. Maar Gysie het sy gholf geniet en volgens hom het ek ‘n fees gehad... TIP: aanvaar ‘n geskenk met grasie, al hou jy nie noodwendig daarvan nie.

Alberton Dienssentrum vir Bejaardes Alberton Dienssentrum vir Bejaardes bestaan al sedert 1986, waar hul ontmoet het in die kerksaal van die Sewendedag Adventiste kerk, te Sewendelaan, Alberton Noord. Sedert 1991 is hul bevoorreg om die gebou in 33 Louis Trihcardt straat te bekom (vroeër jare was dit ‘n seunskoshuis). Tans is daar 20 selfversorgende bejaardes wat inwoon. Hulle maak ook deel uit van die klub wat help met vrywillige takies. Die dienssentrum is ‘n klub vir bejaardes, waar hulle kan gaan kuier, vriende maak, aktiwiteite bywoon asook tee en middagete geniet, teen ‘n geringe koste. Op Maandae en Woensdae is daar vanaf 08:00 tot 09.00 ‘n bejaarde aerobics groep onder leiding van Lenie Kinnear. Woensdagoggend sluit ‘n gratis ontbyt in.

Om 10h00 hou ons Bybelstudie. Op Dinsdae is ander aktiwiteite soos godsdiens, speletjies, braai, besoekende kunstenaars, ens. Donderdae speel die bejaardes Bingo en Vrydae speel hulle rummy cup saam met vriende. Sluit gerus aan, u hoef nie alleen en eensaam te voel nie. Kom maak nuwe vriende en geniet uself. Vanuit die diensentrum word ook mobiele etes diens verskaf. Dit is‘n diens vir bejaardes, verswakte bejaardes en behoeftige persone. Hulle lewer ‘n voedsame tuisgekookte maaltyd af, tot by u woning. Dit is bekostigbare, nie-winsgewende instansie. Kontak gerus die kantoor by (011) 869 0967, praat met Zerie of Nina vir meer inligting.

Die 20ste konferensie van die GoueSuide Streek is op 14 Maart in die NG Kerk Brackenhurst – fasiliteit aangebied, waartydens die gasvroue van Brackenhurst-tak hulle uitstekend van hul taak gekwyt het. Sonskyntak, wat later vanjaar hulle 88ste verjaarsdag vier, is vanjaar vir die tweede agtereenvolgende jaar as wenners in die blommerangskikkingsafdeling bekroon met die Grandiflora wisseltrofee. Hulle spog met drie eerste pryse: Ope - almal, Beginners - Alice Goosen en Middelbaar - Nicci du Preez; asook drie tweede pryse: Beginners - Babs de Wet, Middelbaar - Rosa von Rischbieuder en Gevorderd - Marie Niemand. Een derde prys is ook toegeken vir Gevorderd aan Dini Jansen. Uit die 12 moontlike pryse het hulle dus 7 pryse verower. Al die “blomme dames” het saamgewerk aan die Ope inskrywing wat eeste prys behaal het. Mevv. Babs De Wet, Nicci Du Preez, Alice Goosen en Rosa von Rischbieuder het in

beide die blommerangskikking sowel as die ander afdelings gesorg vir inskrywings. Vyf van die tak se inskrywings gaan deur na die kongres wat in September gehou word, nl. Mev Jeanette Vorster met ‘n 1ste Prys “Broomstick lace” Babarokkie en Nicci du Preez met ‘n eerste prys kreatiewe versierde drasak, sowel as Alice Goosen se saamtrekwerk lampskerm en Gertie Myburgh se “Broomstick lace” stola sowel as haar groetekaartjies. 19 van die 22 Sonskynlede het met hulle inskrywings aktief deelgeneem aan ‘n wonderlike konferensie. Uit die 11 takke in die streek het Sonskyn die 2de hoogste totaal behaal vir al die artikels gekombineer, slegs blomme uitgesluit. Die wenners was Goeiehoop. Al die Sonskyners wil graag die bestuur van die Goue Suide Streek en elkeen wat ‘n bydrae gelewer het geluk wens met nog ‘n suksesvolle en genotvolle konferensie. Ons sien uit na 2016!

Ons dames hou mos maar oor die algemeen van ‘n bietjie bederf, ‘n dag by die haarsalon, ‘n massering, of om jou naels te laat doen. Vir my is dit egter meer van ‘n straf. Dit maak my seer wanneer iemand my hare trek, my lyf is blou na ‘n massering en wanneer my naels lank is sukkel ek om goed op te tel. Gysie verstaan dit nie - ek is dan ‘n vrou - ek

Sexual assault awareness

ABUSE SET-UP

Domestic violence and abuse in the spotlight

Compiled by Lizeth Kotze

Sadly, domestic violence is the most common human rights abuse in South Africa. Every day, women and men are murdered, physically and sexually assaulted, threatened and humiliated by their partners within their own homes. It is estimated that one out of every six women in South Africa is regularly assaulted by their partner. In at least 46% of cases, the men involved also abuse the children living with the women. Determining how many instances of domestic violence actually involve male victims is difficult. This does not mean that the problem does not exist. Some studies have shown that women who assault their male partners are more likely to avoid arrest even when the male victim contacts the police. Domestic violence also occurs in same-sex relationships. Gay and lesbian relationships have been identified as risk factors for abuse in certain populations. Historically, domestic violence has been seen as a family issue and little interest has been directed at violence in same-sex

relationships. Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behaviour that transgresses the right of citizens to be free from violence. When one partner in a relationship harms the other to obtain or maintain power and control over them, regardless of whether they are married or unmarried, living together or apart, that is domestic violence.

Domestic violence can take a variety of forms: Verbal abuse – Shouting Emotional abuse – Manipulation/humiliation Physical abuse – Hitting/punching Sexual abuse – Rape/inappropriate touching Economic abuse – Withholding money

THE CYCLE OF

GUILT

VIOLENCE FANTASY

RATIONALIZATION NORMAL BEHAVIOR

1 Abuse When the time and circumstances are right he begins his attack. This is a display of power and control over his victim 2 Guilt These are not normal feeling from hurting someone, but fear over the possibilty of being caught.

3 Rationalization The abuser blames the victem to justify his own behavior. “ You should shut up when I tell you to , then I wouldn’t have to hit you” 4 Normal Behavior Here the abuser acts as if nothing has happened. Behaviour is normal and this period gives the victim hope that it won’t happen again.

5 Fantasy. Here the abuser fantsizes about past and possible situations in which he abuse his the victim. The abuser will think about ways in which his victim could spark his anger. This fuels the abuser’s anger and puts him in an abusive mindset.

6 Set Up The abuser creats a situation of control in which the victim has no choice but to act in a way that in his mind will justify abuse. He may tell himself he hits her because she “talks back” and will start an argument to set her up.

www.epicfoundation.org.za

says no Needs at the EPIC Foundation do you?? let your voice be heard Everyone in South Africa has the opportunity to raise a voice and share an opinion on the major issue of sexual abuse. Alta McMaster is asking everyone to send their best picture messages of their views on sexual assault, which she will post to the EPIC website, Facebook page and share with the media in an effort to help raise awareness about this terrible crime affecting so many people. We need to raise our voices in South Africa and stand together to make people aware that this is a real problem in our country. It’s time to take a stand and open the eyes of those who do not want to see and speak up when no one else wants to. Send your photos to the EPIC Foundation at info@epicfoundation.org.za

The EPIC Foundation’s Comfort Pack project is aimed at various groups in crisis – survivors of rape and abuse. This includes women, men and children. The objective of the project is to provide rape and abuse survivors with essential items to assist them during the initial reporting process at the police station. Once a statement is taken and the medical examination is completed, the victim will be given the opportunity to clean up. Everything needed for this process will be in the bag provided. Any clothing containing DNA will be kept by the police, so clean underwear is an essential item in the bags. Where possible additional clothing will also be provided to the crisis centres. In most instances, when victims arrive at shelters, they do not have any personal belongings with them. The bags are provided to Victim Empowerment Centres (VECs) linked to police stations, hospitals, Rape Crisis Centres and various shelters in the province. These bags are not left at police stations. Handbags are used for women, kitbags of backpacks for men and for children two bags are prepared: a drawstring with items for when the case is reported and backpacks for the court day.

This week, we will concentrate on Womens/Mens packs. Listed below is items needed for the packs: Comfort pack for when case is reported:

Additional items: tracksuit pants,

• Face cloth • Panties (small, medium or large) – no g-strings and no writing, • Underpants for men • Sanitary towels (individually sealed, as they place 3 in each bag) • Soap (preferably bars) • Toothpaste • Toothbrush • Shampoo (travel size) • Deodorant spray (men and women) • Comb or brush • Hairclips and hairbands • Body lotion • Small notebook and pen • Tissues (small packs) • Energy sweet (Super C or glucose, as chocolate melts in the bags) • Small bottled water • Lip balm or small Vaseline • Note with words of comfort • Handbag for ladies, kitbag or backpack for men

Shelter welcome pack – women

T-shirts, slippers, small hand towel.

• Toothpaste • Toothbrush • Shampoo • Conditioner • Hair comb • Deodorant spray • Body lotion • Bubble bath • Soap • Facecloth • Sanitary towels • Razor • Lip balm

For more information on the EPIC Foundation, or to donate items, contact Alta McMaster on 082 940 6230 or info@epicfoundation.org.za.

tame TIMES will also be accepting donations for the EPIC Foundation - you can drop them off at our offices at 91 Michelle Avenue, Randhart. We will ensure that the items are delivered to the EPIC Foundation.

1. We connect better with things we create

Technology and the human-made world is becoming so deep and complex, that it’s getting harder and harder for us to comprehend everything around us. You can make your world a little less confounding by creating things that have a special meaning to you, but also reflect your personality. You also develop a deeper appreciation for things that you have created yourself. You share a connection with them every time you use them, and you appreciate them in a different way than you do store-bought things.

DIY Tips & Tricks Lego Keyholder

Rustic Outdoor Candle Holders

WHAT YOU NEED:

Glass Jars Wooden Boards Candles Chain Glue Gun Metal Hooks Paint and Sandpaper

2. There is more personal value in things we make You are sharing a part of yourself with the recipient of your gift; they will value the time and effort you put into making something for them with your own hands far more than what it would have took to pick up a gift card at the mall.

1) Paint and sandpaper your wooden boards to give them an old rustic look. 2) Drill holes in the top (for hanging later) and attach the hooks. 3) Measure and cut the chain to your desired length, and glue to either side of the jars. 4) Drill holes in the lid of the jars (so the candle doesn’t go out when closed). 5) Place candles inside and hang on hooks.

Old Ladder Bookshelf

3. The chance to use your hands and brains With all the technology we have, crafts and DIY projects give us a break from the screens and give us a chance to use our hands and minds in order to come up with something creative, and then make a plan to physically create it. The sense of reward you get from making something with your hands can’t be earned any other way.

Using an old ladder to create shelves in your rooms is a creative way to upcycle old ladders, and create extra storage space. First sand down your old ladder to get rid of any marks it may have picked up over the years (and also to get rid of splinters), and give it a fresh coat of paint to suit the room it is going in. Do the same with some planks of wood and simply slot them onto the steps of the ladder. Use nails to pin them into place so the shelves won’t move if the objects are not balanced evenly.

4. A path to freedom With economic uncertainty, people have learned to find other ways and means of generating income. In fact, many enthusiastic “DIYers” have turned their crafts into a well functioning business. But let’s be honest, does creating things you love all day everyday really count as work? 5. The courage to screw up The truth is, we don’t always get our DIY projects right, or exactly the way want it. The beauty is we can also throw it away and start over. *http://www.huffingtonpost.com

Use Lego blocks and boards to create a keyholder, and use Lego characters to assign spots for each persons keys.

Cape Town teen tries to join ISIS A 15-year-old girl from Cape Town, who allegedly ran away from home to join the Islamic State, was caught moments before a British Airways flight was about to leave for Johannesburg, followed by a flight to Saudi Arabia, according to State Security Minister, David Mahlobo. Relatives of the girl contacted authorities after she disappeared from her parents’ home on Sunday morning. It was discovered that the teenager, whose mother is a medical doctor, was missing when she failed to answer her grandparents’ call for breakfast. She had left the house after locking her bedroom door and escaping through a window. According to Yusuf Abramjee from Crime Line, one of the family members approached them for help. He added that dockets suggesting that the group had recruited her, were found in her room. It was initially thought by the police that she was a runaway and the family were turned away by Landsowne police, who told them, in contravention of police procedure, that they had to wait 24 hours before reporting her as missing. When Abramjee was contacted by community leaders, he alerted the Western Cape police commissioner, who raised the alarm with the State Security Department. Airports and border posts were immediately notified and given a description of the girl. The Institute for Security Studies stated that such organisaions are becoming increasingly proficient in using social networks to recruit members. According to the institute’s Anton du Plessis, the schoolgirl could have been deliberately targeted. Du Plessis added that it demonstrates that ISIS is very strategic and clever in terms of how they target the youth. Brian Dube, spokesperson for the State Security Minister, told The Times that this is not the first case they are investigating. They have been picking up information about other possible recruitments in South Africa. Mahlobo told eNCA that the girl had been using technology and social platforms to interact with strangers. She had also been reading some material suggesting that she was interested in joining the terror group. He added that while the ministry is constantly searching through international cyberspace for any evidence of terror threats or recruitment, he is concerned that recruiters have direct access to children, according to EWN. The girl was returned safely to her parents after she was taken off the flight. It is still being investigated how she obtained the funds for the airfare. The entire family is being questioned by State Security to establish exactly how she was recruited and what her role was to be. (News 24 / EWN www.rdm.co.za)

CHAN qualifiers for Rwanda set up Bafana Bafana have been drawn against Mauritius in the preliminary stage of the Orange African Nations Championship Rwanda 2016 ( C H A N ) qualiﬁers. The draw was conducted on Sunday 5 April at the CAF Headquarters in Cairo, Egypt. South Africa is

among 42 teams that will be taking part in the qualifiers – these will produce 15 finalists who will join hosts Rwanda at the tournament scheduled to take place from 16 January to 7 February 2016. Bafana Bafana will host Mauritius on the weekend of 19, 20, 21 June 2015, while the return leg will be held two weeks later (on the weekend of 3, 4, 5 July). Should South Africa proceed to the next stage - the first round - they will then face the winner between Swaziland and Angola with the first leg scheduled for the weekend of 16, 17, 18 October 2015. The second leg will be played a fortnight later (23, 24, 25 October). “Some may be thinking we are playing Mauritius so it will be a walk in the park, but there are no easy teams anymore in international football. Every team wants to do well and if they believe you are a powerhouse they come to you firing on all cylinders, so we must prepare well and work hard for our success,” said Bafana Bafana coach Ephraim Shakes Mashaba after the draw. “The last time, we did not do well at home in the CHAN tournament and many will still be making reference to that so we have to improve on that. We need to pick a strong team that will represent this country well because we have many capable players who are home-based and can hold their own against other nations. I am confident we will succeed.”

Over 100 foreign mountain bikers from 20 countries will be among the field of 800 for a nine-day tour across South Africa, the Old Mutual joBerg2c, which starts just outside Johannesburg on April 24. Photo: Kelvin Trautman Over 100 foreign mountain bikers from 20 countries will be among the field of 800 for a nine-day tour across South Africa, the Old Mutual joBerg2c, which starts just outside Johannesburg on April 24. The 900km fully serviced stage race will cross four provinces, more than 100 remote farms and the wellknown Drakensberg mountain range en route to the Indian Ocean at Scottburgh, south of Durban. According to race organiser Kenya’s Douglas Sidialo (right) is aiming to become Craig Wapnick, there will be the first blind person to complete the nine-day Old a dice upfront among the pro Mutual joBerg2c mountain bike race. He will ride on field but for most it will be a tandem bicycle piloted by friend Joseph Mwangi an eye-opening ride across (left). Photo: Jean du Plessis

South Africa. “Aside from having the ride of your life through this amazing country, many people also ride to raise money and awareness for causes that are close to their hearts. Leading by example, he said, were the continent’s own African adventurers Douglas Sidialo and Sibusiso Vilane. Kenyan Sidialo was blinded in the US Embassy bombing in Nairobi in 1998, which left 250 people dead and thousands injured. With a few mountain bike stage races under his belt, Sidialo is now aiming to be the first blind person to complete the Old Mutual joBerg2c and inspire others to overcome their personal challenges. The 45-year-old will ride on a tandem piloted by his friend and Team Seeing is Believing partner John Mwangi, 20, who is also a former junior

national champion. South African Vilane will ride in his capacity as a global ambassador of the 46664 Mandela Day Bangle Project. The Mandela Day library project, which is supported by riders under the Participate for Good fundraising initiative, has already seen R1.4 million raised and seven container libraries established at rural schools along the route. According to project CEO Robert Coutts, the libraries had already had a major impact on literacy ratios in those communities. Wapnick said the race was proud to have been involved with a range of community upliftment initiatives such as these since its inception six years ago.
