Satire in die Suburbs Volg Stefan op Twitter! @Stefan609

Daar is niks so vervelig soos om op ‘n weeksaand voor die TV te sit en om niks te hê om na te kyk nie. Jy spring rond tussen al die kanale op jou satellietskottel en die daar is net mooi niks. Ten minste, toe Oscar nog in die hof was, kon jy oor en oor na Gerrie Nel se swart toga gekyk het. Of na regter Masipa se Milady’s-uitrustings. Maar, helaas, noudat hy in die tronk is, en al die Generations-akteurs afgedank is, is daar omtrent net programme op waarin die president die hoofrol speel. “The Rolling Hills of The Unnamed Homestead North of Durban” sou ‘n beter naam vir hierdie sepie gewees het (hulle noem dit die “Nuus”) . Of “Murder She Wrote: “The Tuckshop Mysteries”. Of “What lies beneath (the bunker)”. Waar is al die goeie ou reekse? Toe helde nog helde was en hulle snorre nie afgekom het wanneer hulle gaan swem het nie? Die dae van MacGyver - ‘n ou wat met twee vuurhoutjies ‘n bom kon bou of die A-Team, wie se planne altyd uitgewerk het, al het B.A. Baracus die meeste juwele aangehad wat ‘n bomplanter nog aangehad het? Waar is daardie reekse? Gelukkig vir ons moet jy net slim wees en net jou TV-skedules ken. En jy sal bietjie kreatiwiteit aan die dag moet lê om dit gekyk te kry want daar is goeie nuus en slegte nuus. Die goeie nuus is: die ou reeks soos Magnum P.I. is deesdae weer op TV! Die slegte nuus is: dis twaalfuur in die middae op, omtrent net die tyd wat jy by die werk sit en jou tande in ‘n baie louerige, ouerige, olierige pasteitjie inslaan. So, as jy nie ‘n pvr het nie sal dit nogal heel gepas wees om jou ou video-opnemer nader te hark en ‘n ou reeks of twee te “tape” wat jy in die aande kan kyk in plaas van “Shower Hour in the Big House on the Prairie”. Dan kyk jy hoe lyk die helde nou weer wie se snorre nie afkom as hulle swem nie, en wat nog Ferrari’s ry soos Ferrari’s gery moet word: met die snor nog aan. “Happy Movember!” -Stefan van Niekerk

Model behaviour

musings {A note from the Editor}

National Model of the Year Semi-Finals On 8 November, the much anticipated National Model of the Year Semi-Finals show took place at the Brackenpark Hall in Brackendowns. There was a special category for the Debutantes who collected R1000 or more in cash or prize sponsorships. The three overall winners who raised the most cash/prizes were Chanome Wolmarans, Gabriella Ferreira and Leonie Eiberg. They each received a beautiful crown and a Debutante sash.

This prestigious event was divided into a Junior and Senior section. They all wore black or blue standardized outfits to ensure the judging was based on modelling technique and stage presence. The six or seven top scorers from each age category will be attending the finals in mid-December at the Roodepoort Civic Centre. Figures Alberton would like to congratulate all the finalists, who modelled beautifully and definitely owned the stage.

PHOTO: The seven finalists in the age category 10-12: Likhona Binca, Carmen Nepgen, Liandri Van Vuuren, Tieghan Griffin-Coetzer, Mia Louw, Simone Van Der Linde and Hannah Langford

Die Interkerklike Groep vir Afgetredenis se afsluiting het onlangs by The Mad Platter plaasgevind. ‘n Groep besonder opgewonde mense met blink oë vol afwagting het die ruimte kompleet soos ‘n gekwetter van voëls in ‘n bos laat klink. Lance James was die kunstenaar vir die oggend. Hy sing al vir 57 jaar. Op 76-jarige ouderdom kwyt hy homself steeds uitstekend van sy taak. Met sy bekoorlike goue stem en gemaklike optrede, het hy die gaste vêr teruggevoer na die goeie ou dae. Tydens sy optrede het hy al singende tussen die tafels beweeg en foto’s saam

Brackendowns

up in arms Brackendowns residents are up in arms, signing objection forms and petitions against the planned facility that Life Healthcare Group wants opened where Brackendowns Shopping Centre is now situated. The shopping centre had been around for almost 37 years and residents have been looking forward to the new shops that were planned when renovations started taking place about 18 months ago. ‘’We need shops - we don’t need a mental wellness facility,’’ stated Bruce Dinwoodie. Residents gathered on Saturday to fill in petition forms, stating their reasons for their concerns. ‘’We want to know what they mean by ‘mental,’ one of the residents said. Another resident pointed out that a hospital facility never stays individual. It branches out to the surrounding buildings, which in this case are all residential homes. Many people complained about the sewerage system, that is already a problem in the area. ‘’We are not against mental wellness, we are concerned about what will happen to the area,’’ Bruce explained. Shop owners are still in shock. ‘’We just wish they were more upfront with us. I mean we have been around since 1977, we’ve made it this far, how can they say we are unsuccessful?’’ one of the owners said. According to the objection organizers, there was a small notice on the fence in front of the centre. ‘’This is not sufficient notice,’’ they complained. According to the Memorandum in Support of an Application for the Rezoning of Erf 623, Brackendowns, “the property is developed

Sewerage woes finally addressed?

Continued from page 1

NOTICE: The notice informing shop owners about the plans. with a retail shopping centre which is 80% vacant. An application is made to convert an existing unsuccessful shopping centre to a modern, well equipped hospital and health care facility, representing an opportunity to entrench rights to allow job opportunities and provide health care facilities on the site.” According to the application, it is envisaged that the development will be compatible with the surrounding environment and will be a landmark. A development of this nature is seen as means to accommodate a new lifestyle in a growing and dynamic society by providing for a much needed new trend. The applicant’s motivation includes changing the existing model one sees in South African health-care to assist the national government; the scholarships and training that The Life Healthcare Group already provides; as well as 60 potential job opportunities. Up until the time of going to print, Mr Theron could not be reached for comment. Residents have until Friday to submit their completed objection forms. For more information contact Bruce on 083 452 5782.

tame TIMES was sent a letter by a frustrated business owner in Germiston detailing the poor conditions of the roads in his area. By the time of print, Ekurhuleni had responded and according to Themba Gadebe, the senior media manager, the issue has been attended to. Do you have any counci stories you want to bring to the community’s attention? E-mail the editor at monica.supra@tametimes.co.za

We are a shopfitting company based in Germiston. For the past year we have battled constantly and we have repeatedly reported the condition of the roads around our factory. Even though we have reported the problem almost weekly they have only been out here three times in the past year. Once they have been here the repairs only last up to a week. There are huge holes in the road, some of them up to 40cm deep and one metre wide; furthermore the road is covered in sewage due to a burst pipe up the road. Due to this, the sewerage pipe on our premises has blown, due to what I assume is pressure. We have clients that come to our premises and it is not only embarrassing, but it is also disgusting. Clients have to ramp pavements in order to get to our office as well as bear the smell of sewage, not to mention that we have to sit with the smell every day. We pay large sums of money every month but get no service from Ekurhuleni. Our bills have gone from about R12000 per

month to between R18000 and R23000 per month, and I have been fighting and querying this for months to no avail. Why do we as a company have to pay fees but have to accept the fact that we cannot drive on our roads, have to sit with pegs on our noses every day and waste time and money on phone calls for nothing? Official comment: CONDITION OF THE ROADS The sewer related complaint has been attended to. The sewer spillage has been cleaned and disinfected. The depot concerned does not have records of the complaint and hence it was not attended to. We therefore encourage all consumers to log water and sewer related complaint through the call centre (086 054 3000) so that we can respond speedily to their requests. COMMENT: ROADS The complaint is noted. An inspection will be conducted and the necessary work will be instituted. Issued by Themba Gadebe Spokesperson / Senior Media Manager

If successfully implemented, the Ekurhuleni Metro’s initiative could create as many as 230 000 new jobs in the years 2015 to 2035. Gautrain Management Agency (GMA) CEO Jack van der Merwe addressed guests at the Ekurhuleni Captains of Industry Forum (ECoIF) meeting last Tuesday morning on the benefits of the Metro’s strategic decision to make the area surrounding the OR Tambo International airport in Ekurhuleni a productive and successful hub of tourism and other commercial interests. Van der Merwe explained the aerotropolis initiative was not a project, rather a process. “Development happens naturally around an airport but if the proper planning and implementation is done, it can have significant benefits for local industry.” He explained the airport connected to over 94 destinations globally, giving the areas in its precinct great reach and potential. “Local businesses need to team together to show South Africa as a compelling place to live, to

invest, build a business and thrive,” he said. He said that at the moment the airport was a ‘transfer point’ with people arriving at the airport moving on to other destinations. However, local authorities wanted to make it a destination point, enhancing business, entertainment, education and health facilities to attract guests to the area. He said the Metro had already drafted a five-year plan for the aerotropolis initiative and were currently working on a 25-year

plan, to be finalised by the middle of next year. He said ground preparation had already begun, involving transport improvement, identifying land for development, and the improvement of water, power and sanitation facilities. He said the five-year plan would provide significant value to the current economy of Ekurhuleni and has encouraged all local businesses to get involved. ECoIF CEO Chris van Biljon explained the forum and the Ekurhuleni Business Initiative, recognized by local government, exists for the purpose of mobilising businesses to work in unity towards the improvement of the community. He said constructive action from businesses was required to make the council’s vision for hundreds of thousands of jobs to be created through the aerotropolis initiative. “If you don’t have businesses acting constructively, nothing will get done,” he said.

Letters Glorious Gardens

of Germiston Germiston Rotary Anns would like to thank everyone who came to see the wonderful gardens last weekend. We are sure you would all agree that each one, although completely different to all the others, was a pleasure to walk through and admire. The weather was just perfect. Our biggest thank you must go to our wonderful gardeners, who opened their gardens up for us all to see. They were a source of inspiration, education and admiration. Rotary Anns would also like to thank the sponsors for their generous contributions. We would not have been able to organize this event without the support of the Germiston Garden Club. Their help and advice has been immeasurable, for which we say a very big thank you. If you are interested in finding out more about the Garden Club, contact Neville Kew on 082 376 9728.

Die mense rondom my, en ek self is die laaste ruk besig om te vertel hoe besig die jaar geword het. Dit is amper asof ons dit anders verwag het, en daarom bietjie verbaas staan oor waar die kalender trek of hoe besonders gedrewe die tempo op die oomblik is. Ek dink ook die pragtige Kersfeesliggies wat oral verskyn is besig om ons verlangend uit te nooi na die feestyd. Die tyd van rus en herstel. Een van die mooiste eienskappe van die verhoudinge tussen ons kollegas by die werk is dat ons vir mekaar uitkyk. Op n manier help ons mekaar om na onself om te sien. Vandag wil ek vir jou vra of jy so iemand het? Iemand wat kan sien wanneer jy n breek nodig het. Iemand wat Christus se liefdeswet in jou lewe vervul. Help ander gelowiges wat swaarkry, en gee só uitvoering aan Christus se liefdeswet. (GALASIËRS 6:2 NLV) Mooi week.

Toe ek nog ‘n “flower child” was, besluit ‘n paar van ons om ‘n partytjie by te woon in die stad. Ek en my ou Gysie was toe nog net vriende, daar was nog nie eers ‘n teken van ogies maak nie. So laai ‘n vriend ons almal op met sy Kewer – en ons pak daardie motortjie soos net studente kan!

Scary fun

Friday 7 November still held a treat in store for residents in the Kristal Crescent enclosure who took part in another well attended Trick-or-Treat Walkabout for the children in their neighbourhood. This year saw almost 30 houses with nearly 80 children all dressed up to the nines, going from house to house to fill their goodie bags with sugar-filled delicacies, being guided by a printed map depicting only the participating houses. Residents pulled out all the stops to make their houses the creepiest on the block, while the kids thoroughly enjoyed all the scary fun to be had!

Heigent hert julle, die nostalgie pak my hierdie week! Ek sit so en dink aan ou vriende en gebeurtenisse en lag sommer kliphard. Laat ek julle eers vertel van Gysie se Franse episode. Toe ek nog ‘n “flower child” was, besluit ‘n paar van ons om ‘n partytjie by te woon in die stad. Ek en my ou Gysie was toe nog net vriende, daar was nog nie eers ‘n teken van ogies maak nie. So laai ‘n vriend ons almal op met sy Kewer – en ons pak daardie motortjie soos net studente kan! By die venster sit my goeie vriendin Lalla. Ons maak al die vensters oop vir ‘n bietjie vars lug en meer spasie. Gysie het reeds by die huis begin opwarm en sit heel tevrede agter in die motor. Stop by ‘n stopstraat, hier staan ‘n hond so hoog soos ‘n ponie en kyk vir Lalla in die gesig. Ewe braaf leun Gysie oor, kyk die hond stip in die oë en haak af: “le

woef!”, kompleet met ‘n Franse aksent. By die partytjie aangekom, kyk ons die talent uit. Lalla sien hoe Gysie ‘n meisietjie so skaperig aankyk en gaan maak kennis, met die doel om hulle dan later aan mekaar voor te stel. Vol selfvertroue stap Gysie toe na die groep toe sodat Lalla haar ding kan doen. “Het jy vir haar gesê ek kan Frans praat?” vra hy vir Lalla. Die jonge dame hoor dit toe en vra opgewonde dat Gys iets moet sê in Frans. “Le hello,” sê die stomme man heel in sy skik – en ons skater. Dit is seker nie nodig om te noem dat die meisie nie vreeslik beïndruk was nie. Jare later lag ek en my Gysie steeds oor die aand wat hy sy naam so met ‘n plank geslaan het. En dit verruil ek vir niks. Die, gesels, die onthou, die lag! TIP: vul jou lewe met mense wat jou laat lag, dit bly die beste medisyne!

Jurgens van der Merwe (29), die heroïnslaaf wat skuldig bevind is aan die moord op sy vriendin Lynette Botes (42) van Alberton, is op 12 November tot 15 jaar tronkstraf gevonnis in die Johannesburgse hooggeregshof. Die regter het ook tot nog ses jaar tronkstraf gevonnis op aanklag van roof met verswarende omstandighede en tot ‘n jaar weens diefstal. Die vonnisse sal gelyklopend uitgedien word. Die feit dat Van der Merwe nooit berou getoon het nie, dra ook by tot verswarende omstandighede. Van der Merwe is sedert Oktober 2011 in aanhoudng en het deurlopend aangevoer dat hy bloot op sy vriendin se lyk afgekom het. Hy het nooit die polisie gebel nie. Haar lyk was reeds in ‘n gevorderde stadium van ontbinding teen die tyd wat die lykskouing plaasgevind het na haar dood op 18 Oktober 2011.

She was charged for possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition.

If your cellphone is lost or stolen: • If your cellphone is lost or stolen, report the loss to your service provider. • Request the service provider to block the SIM card to ensure that no further calls can be made. At the same time request that the handset be blacklisted, in this way making the handset inactive so that it cannot be used on any of the networks in South Africa. • Your service provider will provide you with a blacklisted reference number. Please keep this reference number, as it is the proof that the handset has been blacklisted. • The next step is to report the incident to the South African Police Services at a police station. The police will request the blacklisting reference number so that they can open a case. • Remember that if your cellphone is insured, your insurance company will request your service provider’s blacklist reference number and the case number from the South African Police Service.

• Conceal your cellphone when you are in a public place. • Never leave your cellphone unattended in a public place. • Always conceal your cellphone when walking in the street. • Never leave cellphones lying on a seat in your car. • Never leave your cellphone unattended in your office. • If you are forced to leave your cellphone in a bag at a sporting event for example, put it on silent so that it will not attract any attention from passersby. • When you are in a public place only answer your cellphone when it is safe to do so. • Avoid being tricked into lending your cellphone to What would you like tips on in future editions someone who wants to make a call. of tame TIMES?

robbers nabbed

Acting on a tip-off from a reliable source about a planned business robbery in the Alberton area, Metro Police Officers from the K9, SWAT and Crime Task teams managed to apprehend lawbreakers on Wednesday 12 November at 11:45. The arrest took place at a scrap metal company at the corner of Piet Retief and Second Avenue. Three male suspects between 21 and 27 stormed into a minifactory, demanding cash and valuables. Three male employees were assaulted while being pointed at with a firearm. An undisclosed amount of cash was taken, but as the robbers attempted to exit the building, officers welcomed them. Metro Police officers recovered all the stolen loot and what looked like a 9mm pistol. No shots were fired and those with slight injuries were treated on the scene by paramedics. The trio is facing a charge of business robbery with that of assault. Suspects were taken to the Alberton Police Station and will appear at the Palm Ridge Magistrate’s Court soon.

Open tender process launched in Gauteng

Cable thieves

who caused major water shortage confess Power utility City Power made a major breakthrough in the fight against cable theft last Friday when it arrested four suspects who confessed to be the masterminds behind the theft of the electricity cable in Eikenhof that led to widespread water outages in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Ekurhuleni and the West Rand two months ago. The water shortage occurred as a result of the theft of electricity cables needed for the reservoirs to pump water. The suspects were arrested by City Power Investigative Unit with 120 kilograms worth of copper valued at R8 435. The apprehension of the suspects follows a tip-off from the scrap dealer who alerted City Power to the suspicious goods that the suspects were selling. Upon being questioned, the suspects confessed that they were behind the theft of the electricity cable in Eikenhof that resulted in widespread water outages in September. They conceded that they are part of a syndicate that is actively involved in the theft of electricity cables and copper and took City Power investigators to cable theft hot spots that they have targeted. The suspects also showed the investigators the site where they strip the cables and also identified and fingered City Power contactor employees who provide them with information on vulnerable areas and equipment they should target. The employees identified by the suspects were also arrested, bringing the total to eight people who have been locked behind bars at the Booysens Police Station. The suspects including their accomplices will appear in court soon on charges of theft, damage to property. The South African Police Services and

City Power are on a manhunt for other members of the syndicate who are at large. Managing Director of City Power Sicelo Xulu welcomed the arrest and said this major bust is indicative of how a partnership between communities, City Power, law enforcement agencies such as the South African Police Services (SAPS), the Hawks and the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) can yield positive results in the fight against cable theft. “The water cuts that affected communities in Pretoria and Johannesburg due to cable theft are a grim and chilling reminder of how the scourge of cable theft can impact negatively on communities and businesses if it remains unchecked. We appeal to our communities to work with us to rid ourselves of the menace of cable theft as it poses a national security threat and robs us of much needed jobs,” said Xulu. Cable theft causes the economy to haemorrhage over R5 billion annually. “This lost revenue is money that could be invested to grow the economy and generate employment opportunities. Small and medium sized businesses are the hardest hit by unplanned power outages and in many instances many of them have to shed jobs in order to survive the negative impact of lost revenue sustained during unplanned outages by criminally induced actions,” said Xulu. He said the Association of Electricity Municipalities of Southern Africa (AMEU), the industry body in which he was elected President, is lobbying They conceded that they g o v e r n m e n t are part of a syndicate to have cable theft classified that is actively involved as economic in the theft of sabotage. electricity cables

Owing to the rapidly increasing population of Gauteng, if strategic intervention is not taken to improve the existing transport system over the coming 23 years, by 2037 the average speed of a motor vehicle on Gauteng’s roads could dwindle to just 12km/h. Jack van der Merwe, CEO of Gautrain Management Agency (GMA), presented these staggering statistics at the recent Ekurhuleni Captains of Industry Forum. He said planning was essential to accommodate the growing population of Gauteng, which by 2037 was expected to increase to 18,7 million from a population of 11,2 million in 2010. He said the number of

residents in the province was growing by as much as 700 people every day. He said if Gauteng were to remain a powerhouse in the country, three shifts would be necessary in the transport system: from motorised to non-motorised, private to public and road to rail transport. He said government had developed a five-year plan to address this expected phenomenal growth and was fine-tuning a 25-year plan. New rail systems and bus routes are also on the cards for the Gauteng area. “If we don’t take this seriously, calculations have shown the road could become so congested the average motor vehicle speed will be 12km/h,” he said, “You might have a BMW but you will go slower than a horsedrawn carriage”.

Caring for a

terminally

ill child

Page 18

Tips for parents with a terminally ill child Manage the child’s symptoms in a comfortable setting. Thus, keep them as comfortable as possible. Gather information from your health team on how your child’s needs may change so that you know what to expect. Maintain a high quality of life as far as the illness will allow.

Lizeth Kotze

Encourage your child to continue to set goals for himself since it gives him meaning and a sense of achievement.

Lizeth.kotze@tametimes.co.za

Where possible, allow him privacy and independence.

Hopes, dreams, growing up to become fully functional adults, a lifetime filled with happiness these are the wishes any parent has for his or her child. So finding out your child is terminally ill, is life-shattering. Having a child with a life-shortening illness is overwhelming and emotionally draining. The impact on the family as a whole is enormous. It affects the family’s daily routine and maintaining a “normal” family life will become increasingly difficult, not to mention the financial impact the treatment might have. The reality is that no one can take away your pain and grief but trying to handle the situation the best you can is the most important thing you can do as a parent.

Allow your child to discuss his fears and questions. If you have more than one child, inform them about the illness and let them help take care of their sick sibling. Spend time with all your children and do not always focus on the illness. As difficult as it might be, practise normal parenting. Without limits, your child may feel out of control. Stand together as a family and seek support for all involved. Be honest about your own fears and pain. Have those difficult conversations about death and dying. It could be of some comfort knowing you gave your child the send-off they wanted.

Having a child with a life-shortening illness is overwhelming and draining. The impact on the family as a whole is enormous.

THIS CHRISTMAS

The Gauteng Department of Health urges residents who will be travelling to areas such as Kruger National Park, Tanzania, Mozambique, Kenya and Somalia this festive season, to take anti-malarial medication. The Department says it is important for residents to be cautious prior to their visit to malaria endemic areas and urges those who will be travelling to these areas to avoid mosquito bites while there. The Department’s spokesperson, Prince Hamnca, says in 2014 there have been 26 deaths out of 1 820 malaria cases reported in the province. He adds that investigations into the deaths illustrate that those who died were people who did not take precautionary measures against the disease and presented late at health facilities. “There is a need to continue spreading awareness messages about the deaths in our communities. People need to know that malaria is a disease that is transmitted by the bites of certain types of mosquitoes,” says Hamnca. He says malaria symptoms include fever, headache, flu-like symptoms, body aches and pains, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. People at risk include children under five, the elderly and pregnant women. “Mosquito bites can be avoided by staying indoors at night, wearing long-sleeved shirts and trousers or using mosquito repellents that can be applied to exposed skin areas - burn mosquito repellent candles and coils, spray insecticides, and use nets around the bed,” he says. The Department also urges people to seek

those who died did not take precautionary measures and presented late at health facilities … medical attention where signs and symptoms of malaria are suspected, especially if the person has travelled to malaria endemic areas. If you have been to a malarial area – even if you have taken prophylaxis – you must see a doctor immediately if you develop any of the following: general aches and pains, fever, chills, headache, sweats, fatigue, nausea and vomiting. Remember to tell your doctor that you have been exposed to malaria when you see him or her.

Another great 94.7 Thousands of cyclists gathered at Riversands in Fourways again on Sunday to take on the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge. 21-year old Till Drobisch from Namibia secured his maiden victory in the men’s race with a time of 2:21:54. Drobisch, along with many other cyclists who took part this year, described the new route as challenging. The new route took riders on a 94.7km race from Mnandi Road and finished with a tough 400m climb in Steyn City, Fourways. The women’s race was dominated by Olympic Gold medallist, Marianne Vos, who also booked her first victory on South African soil. She finished the race in a time of 2:93:57. Mayor of City of Johannesburg, Parks Tau, also competed in the challenge and finished it on his first attempt. South African Minister of Sport and Recreation, Fikile Mbalula, took to Twitter to wish all the cyclists good luck: ‘’Good luck to all cyclist(s) today who will be taking part in the 94.7. I wish you strength and endurance t(hr)ough the race ahead,’’ he tweeted. tame TIMES COO, Karin Blignaut, also took part in the challenge for the first time. We at tame TIMES are all very proud of her and wish to congratulate her on another block checked off on her bucket list.
