Santa Shoebox Project is a non-profit organization that collects Christmas gifts for underprivileged children throughout South Africa, by way of a social and community network of families, friends, schools and churches. The Santa Shoebox Project is instrumental in involving people from all walks of life, especially children together with their parents, in giving to children from a distinctly vulnerable social background who may never have received a Christmas gift before. Many people have a desire to contribute to their community or do their ‘little bit for charity’, but often don’t know where to start. The Santa Shoebox Project takes pride in channeling all that positive energy into something that is credible, makes a real difference in a specific child’s life and leaves the donor feeling really good about him or herself. September marked the launch of this year’s heart warming Santa Shoebox Project, which has been collecting Christmas gifts for thousands of underprivileged children throughout the country since 2006
The target for 2011 is 70 000 Santa Shoeboxes, which will be dispatched to more than 600 children’s homes, orphanages and other child care institutions across the country, in time to place a happy smile on many a child’s face this festive season. With ‘teach your child the joy of giving’ as the essence of the project, donors are encouraged to involve their own children in the process of personally selecting the name of a specific child, and putting together his or her, age appropriate Santa Shoebox gift according to the guidelines provided. These include some practical necessities, such as toothpaste and toothbrush, face cloth and soap, as well as sweets, educational supplies, a toy and an item of clothing. Enter into the spirit of Christmas early this year and register on-line at www.santashoebox.co.za The gift wrapped Santa Shoeboxes need to be dropped off at central distribution points across the country between 20 October and 4 November.

We are ideally located at the very heart of the action right on Beau Vallon Beach,on Mahé Island near the marine reserve, and enjoy easy access to the most beautiful dive sites of the island. The fully equipped boats and professional team of dive masters will help you discover the diversity of the varied and prolific underwater marine life. It is possible to dive all year round but the quality of dive sites varies depending on prevailing winds. The water temp is 29 ºC and visibility extends beyond 30 metres. From May to August, visibility is reduced and the water is colder (25 °C). We suggest a wetsuit of at least 4 mm. The depth of dives vary from 8 to 20 meters for sites near the coast and up to 40 meters for open water dives and wrecks. The marine flora and fauna of the nearby islands reveal an abundance of fish on reefs near the coast: several species of butterfly fish, angelfish, emperor, soldier fish, squirrel fish, parrot fish and glass fish are just some species among many. The cliffs also hide many species of invertebrates among which there are octopus, lobster...
Sites where there is always current you will see growing gorgonian and colorful coral formations while in more remote sites you will find bigger species such as big napoléons, giant groupers, reef sharks and rays. Among the most spectacular species, whale sharks encircle the islands from June to December, especially in September and October From late 2012 the Blue Sea Divers Dive Centre will offer the chance to cruise the Seychelles on board the amazing new Galatea with six brand new spacious cabins on board, it has specifically being designed for diving cruises and is equipped with all modern comforts.

This is the KTM X-BOW These mark the entry into the fantastic world called X-BOW and of course to some degree, it is the attributes of these vehicles – aggressive design and sporting potential - that transform the KTM X-BOW R into the most outstanding super sports car available today. The ‘Street’ and the ‘Clubsport’ can generate 240 h.p thanks to the proven 2.0 TFSI Audi engine. The performance is no less impressive - beginning with the acceleration right up to the lateral acceleration in the curves – and of course you can have a whole lot of fun both on the road and the racetrack with both of these cars. For all those who regularly make at trip to the racing circuit there is a special KTM X-BOW designed specifically for their requirements and needs: the ‘Clubsport’. This car perfectly combines the requirements of a street legal vehicle with those suitable for the racing circuit, primarily because of the many features that directly derive from motorsports like the suspension, which with its adjustable shock absorbers (including preload adjuster) in pushrod arrangement is already familiar to the technology from Formula racing
cars, and with adjustable stabilizers and more precisely adjustable pushrods that offers both the semiprofessional and the passionate hobby driver a range of options. The steel roll bar, fire extinguisher, side protection drops, 6-point seat belts emergency stop switch, racing headrest and dry cell battery round off the list of special features. So whether its for Sundays or Track days these are special vehicles that will keep you smiling ! The KTM X-BOW is available in models ranging from a street version to a full blown Ready to Race machine.

The site was Bean Bag Bohemia (BBB), however will now be HAI.BO, the hottest new restaurant / bar /café in Durban. Post the closure of BBB earlier this year, Durbanites and regular visitors were starved of a great place to hang out and get to know what is going on in Durban. A group of friends and regulars to the old establishment saw this opportunity to offer Durban something fresh whilst being relevant and on-trend in terms of a great dining experience and a destination venue, something that would work anywhere. Hai.bo, the brand, was born and will soon be offering its clientele the hottest eatery where the cool and on-trend set hang-out. The 1st Hai.bo store will be opening its’ doors in October 2011, with a string a very exciting events and activities to reignite the Florida Rd strip and create a creative precinct between Campbell Rd and St. Mary’s Avenue.
The venue is currently being renovated and upgraded to offer 4 different areas, in which to relax and enjoy great food, wide selection liquid refreshments, whilst enjoying good company from 11am – till late (2am). Hai.bo will cater to a wide mix of visitors, thereby becoming Durban’s only truly cosmopolitan venue. The food styling at Hai.bo will be inspired by an Afro-Asian Fusion, whilst catering to the diverse nature of the local clientele’s palette. “Our fine dining area will have a classic menu with flavour coming from the various local and Asian influence found in KZN and SA at large stated the Hai.bo Executive chef. Hai.Bo will be the perfect spot to meet friends, have business meetings, whilst enjoying a great dining experience. Hai.bo is bound to also get tongues wagging, not only from the quirky and unique services that will be offered, but also from the irreverent décor and design components that are being installed. “We look forward to yet another great space where we will be able to entertain and proudly host our visitors to Durban. As SA’s warmest place to be, we are excited to have a place that will showcase our warmth via the diversity of our people, our cultures” Commented Tourism Durban Marketing Manager, Dumi Mbatha.
We decide on prawn toasts, some dim sum, of which we choose har gau. These are little dumplings some filled with spicy prawn & some with spinach and cream cheese.
HAIKU. A decision has been made and we'll lunch at the “renowned” HAIKU. An Asian tapas restaurant that has an amazingly huge bamboo steamer baskets, woks and gas burners that sound like the firing up of a hot air balloon ! The interior is dark with low hanging lights over the tables and it doesn't matter whether it's day or night once you've entered, time stands still. Sit at the counter to be part of the frenzy as the fusion chefs create poetry. The menu is extensive, as is the wine list with some well known labels ... now decisions have to be made !
Then some sui mai, which are little open faced dumplings, also with a spicy prawn filling. All excellent little bits to share ! There are a variety of steamed, stir fried dishes, spring rolls and even Peking duck ! At the top of my list ... the bbq duck spring rolls served with hoisan sauce ! We loved it and will be back ...

combined with the sublime view and rattle of the table as trains journey past more than offsets the wait for your lunch.
Cape to Cuba “A slice of old Havana” is fun, different, and apparently (I am told) authentically Cuban. With a touch a “mad” thrown in, and behind the unassuming façade of trinkets and art is a restaurant that is far more than a great dining experience. It’s a restaurant where literally everything is for sale! Tables are adorned with over sized ornate candle holders that complete the mismatched chairs and tables and fit in perfectly with the tropically hued walls that give the restaurant a splash of everything Cuban. The combination of food quality and festive atmosphere
The fresh Cuban bread with salsa & mango fruit to start gets you all reved up and ready to jump into your mains which would satisfy most tastes. The beverage list is reasonable, however, finding the cocktail menu was delightfully sinful ... Cape to Cuba is a well orchestrated dance considering the tight space and Cuban confusion… In short, we'll return and work our way through the rest of the menu.

Pure, Distilled Africa Returns To Authentic Safari Singita Game Reserves has launched Singita Explore, a transformational new travel concept that will take guests on a private mobile safari to some of Africa’s most remote and romantic wilderness sites. The new product has been custom designed to meet global trends, and the demand from discerning travellers for privacy, exclusivity and closeness to nature. Singita Explore rolled out in East Africa earlier this year within the 340 000 acre (142 000ha) Singita Grumeti Reserves, situated along the Western corridor of Tanzania’s legendary Serengeti. A completely exclusive, true ‘mobile’ camp, Singita Explore is a unique, modern safari experience unlike any other. Singita Explore puts the adventure back into ‘going on safari’, offering a journey of exploration on an exclusive-use basis for between 2 and 12 guests only. It is an ideal component of an East African safari itinerary within the Singita Grumeti Reserves, including stays at its three different lodges: Singita Faru Faru, Singita Sabora Tented Camp and flagship Singita Sasakwa, the only Relais & Châteaux property in East Africa.
Touching the earth lightly, everything about the mobile camp is designed for minimal energy consumption.With little environmental impact. Guests will return from game drives to en-suite hideaways where canvas walls frame contemporary details infused with the durable textures of Africa. Designed by Cécile & Boyd’s around a theme that is modern, robust and stylish, with wholesome furnishings that are real, utilitarian and comfortable - in steel, leather, timber, rubber and natural fabrics, Singita Explore removes the clutter of everyday life with a safari that is both luxurious and uncomplicated. Singita’s innovative signature style and dedication to conservation embodies the design and purpose of Singita Explore. Luke Bailes, CEO of Singita Game Reserves says privacy and exclusivity too are key signatures of the Singita Explore concept. ‘With Singita Explore we see the return of raw authenticity to days spent in the bush, and nights under canvas in the wilderness. Luxury is still there, but we’re doing it differently - comfortable and detailed, with the excess taken out, and yet, retaining the element of luxury to offer a very beautiful safari adventure experience. Singita Explore is back to basics, pure distilled Africa without modern-day distractions to guarantee closeness to wildlife and untouched landscapes.’
Unlike other camps, which are seasonal and semipermanent, Singita Explore will be disassembled and moved to different locations in accordance to nature, its rainfall patterns, vegetation, and game movements that include the annual wildebeest migration - one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on earth. The mobile safari camp will be fully staffed with a private guide and game viewing vehicle, chef and a camp host, with each itinerary individually tailored according to guests’ personal interests, and preferred safari activities. Within Singita Grumeti Reserves, Singita Explore will also offer equestrian mobile tented safaris, providing an opportunity for horse lovers to spend their days riding on the open plains of the Serengeti, and the evenings gathered around the campfire, sharing stories and experiences. Equestrian group departures have been set for specific dates to accommodate up to eight riders from different parts of the world, brought together by their love for riding and nature. Elsewhere, the new Singita Explore brand may in future extend into some of the other pristine wilderness reserves where Singita holds exclusive concessions Singita Game Reserves www.singita.com Tel: +27 21 683 3424 Email: Reservations@singita.co.za

The Volvo V60 makes its entry onto the car market with its sights ďŹ rmly set on giving the all-new S60 sedan model a tough match over the title of "The Most Dynamic Volvo Model Ever". A Coupe rather than estate car, from the design viewpoint the focus was on making the car as close to a coupe as possible, while retaining that handy extra space at the rear. The sports wagon does not aim to compete with the traditional estate car. The pronounced wedge shape and the slim coupe-like roof line of the new V60 are accompanied by the shoulder proďŹ le along the car's sides, creating a gentle yet powerful double wave from the headlamps at the front to the tail lamps at the rear. The dip in the middle of the double wave visually pushes the car down. This enhances the stance and makes the car look sleeker and lower. The sculpted bonnet and the short overhangs front and rear also emphasise the sports car feel.
R-Design with extra spice
Exclusive quality inside
The all-new Volvo V60 R-Design comes with a range of specially developed design details both outside and in. On the inside, the driver and front passenger sit in sports seats in which the backrest from the V60 is matched by an all-new seat cushion with even closer side support than before.
Volvo's designers obtained their inspiration from the racing track as they pursued the sportiness inside the all-new S60. The graphic character of the racing track is clearly apparent in the instrument panel and in the doors. Every detail looks like it's in motion. The instruments and centre stack are angled towards the driver to create a sensation of focus and control. The new dynamic three-spoke steering wheel and new sports seats with extra side supports are standard. The rationality, simplicity, clarity and functionality of Scandinavian design are all prominent in the new V60
Volvo Cars' chassis experts have taken the next step on the road to a more and more exciting driving experience. In the R-Design chassis they have sharpened the steering, the agility and the solid overall impression still further compared with the dynamic chassis in the all-new V60. Exciting styling pack A styling pack gives the V60 buyer the opportunity to boost the sporty attitude still further. Available in the accessories range, the styling pack includes skid plates front and rear, a front decor trim, side scuff plates, special exhaust tailpipes and unique 18-inch wheels. The styling pack gives the car the robust look inspired by the ruggedness of the XC60.
Every detail was refined during the development process, the chassis team carved out a holistic solution featuring changes and refinements for virtually every single detail that influences a car's driving properties. This includes improved steering, stiffer springs and bushes as well as more damping than in any previous Volvo Pricing: From R317.700 ( T3 Manual ) to R474.700 ( T6 Geartronic )

Karen is one of the few female knifemakers in the world, her lean working hands somewhat complement her natural femininity. She is enthusiastic about her craft, and acknowledges that she has had the privilege of learning from the best chraftsmen. Utility knives and miniatures are her main points of interest.

Curacao
Always hot with a breeze, This is Curacao. Once the Caribbeans slave post, Curacao is now a bustling and colourful little island thats always “Hopi Bon” ( happy ). There is a strong Dutch influence and dont be surprised if you are invited to a braai, as many South Africans now call this island home. This is not your typical island, it’s more devil thorns than palms and the landscape is hard, rugged and it hosts a piece of Botswana’s charm ! Maybe a jewel maybe a stone but definitely a touch of mad to the eye ... “Ostriches” how strange, in the Caribbean ? From its warm crystal clear waters and scuba diving to riding dirt bikes and Moet bubbles on the beach, Curacao certainly is a special place. Stay @ Wave Hotel in Otrobunda Play Poker @ Kura Hulanda Casino Enjoy Great Mojito’s @ Mundo Bizzaro Have Lunch on the beach @ Hooks Hut The Best Sundowners @ Hemmingways Great Scuba Diving @ The Dive Bus Go Kite Surfing near the Ostriches
Reflexology is an ancient art of holistic healing that deals with the principle of ‘the zone theory”. The Zone theory is - there are 10 zones in which all the structures in the body are mirrored in the reflexes of the feet, hands and ears. The reflexes of the feet, hands and ears are stimulated using a “caterpillar walk” with thumbs and fingers.
Reflexology
It’s a non invasive therapy which helps to bring about homeostasis within the 9 body systems, correcting imbalances, cleansing, revitalizing and facilitating normal body functions.
