Die 43-jarige Cythleen Beukmanwat in ’n brandwat in dieCaledon-hospitaaluitgebreekhet,beseer is,is Dinsdag 9 September oorlede.Sy is op Donderdag 4 September

in die Caledon-hospitaal opge-neem vir behandeling van tuber-kulose.DiebrandhetSaterdag6Septem-

ber in die hospitaalkamer waarBeukman gelê het, uitgebreek.Volgens ’n betroubare bron het

Beukman na bewering in die ka-mer ’n sigaret met ’n vuurhoutjieaangesteek terwyl sy ’n suurstof-masker gebruik het.

Die kamer het in vlamme uitge-bars en volgens Beukman se fami-lie het sy 70%-brandwonde opge-doen. Sy is na dié hospitaal se in-tensiewesorgeenheid oorgeplaas,maar is drie dae later oorlede.VolgensNatashaPeterson, kom-

munikasie-amptenaar van dieOverberg-distrik, word die ont-staan van die brand deur die Cale-don-polisie ondersoek.“’n Nadoodse ondersoek is ge-

doen en die bevindings is aan dieondersoekbeampte deurgegee omdie saak verder te ondersoek.”Marishen Beukman, Cythleen

se niggie, sê die familie is diep be-droef oor haar dood. “Ons is so in

die duister oor wat presies gebeurhet. Ons het gehoor dat sy glo gelêen rook het. Die familie stem niesaam nie. Ons wil bewyse sien.”Beukman sê Cythleen het soos

almal, goeie en swak punte gehad.“Sy was baie lief vir haar familieen kinders. Sy was altyd behulp-saam. Ek mis haar geweldig baiewant sy het altyd vir my kom helpwerf skoonmaak en dan het onstwee tog altyd so lekker gesels.”Beukman laat haar pa, twee sus-

ters, eenbroer, vier kinders en eenkleinkind agter.Die begrafnis sal op Saterdag 20

September in Tesselaarsdal plaas-vind.

Frustrasie oor diewewat inNorthcliff toeslaanJANINE VAN DER RIET

’nJongman,woonagtiginDirkieUys-Straat in Northcliff, is nou al raadopná opportuniste reeds drie keer by syhuis, wat oorkant Laerskool Herma-nus geleë is, ingebreek het.Van die inbrake het helderoordag

plaasgevind.Jacques Buys sê alhoewel hul le-

wens nie direk in gevaar was nie, iswaardevolle items wel gesteel.In al drie gevalle wou hy ’n saak by

diepolisieaanhangigmaak,maarvol-

gens hom, sonder sukses. Sy skootre-kenaar, klere, beursie en ’n handsakis gesteel. Met die laaste inbraak so-wat tweeweke gelede, sê Buys, het hyin die tuin rondgeloopnáhybesef hetdaar is ingebreek.Hy het onder andere iemand onbe-

kendsepaspoortinsytuinontdekwatwaarskynlik by ’n ander huis gesteelis. Hy het ook sy beursie met al sykaarte naby sy huis opgetel. Die kon-tant was wel uit sy beursie gesteel.Buys sê Northcliff loop tans deur

onder opportuniste wat ronddwaal

vir kwaadgeld en inwoners moet ophul hoede wees.Kolonel Francois de Wet, waarne-

mende bevelvoerder van die Herma-nus Polisie het, ná Buys se frustrasieaan hom bekend gemaak is, dadelikvir Buys probeer kontak.“Elke mens is geregtig om ’n saak

oop te maak. Ek nooi die publiek uitom my direk te kontak met al die be-sonderhedeindien ’npolisiemanhomof haarself skuldigmaak daaraan om’n saak te weier.”De Wet volg tans Buys se sake op.

inHermanus, sêdithethaar tweeureDinsdagaandgeneemomvandie lug-hawe af Hermanus toe te ry.“Die R44was donker en baie besig.

Ek het agter vragmotors gesit kus-langs, en daar is geen plek om hulleverby te steek nie.”Die Wes-Kaapse minister van on-

derwys, Debbie Schäfer, het Dinsdagkriminele klagtes gelê teen die orga-niseerderswat agter die betoging sit.Sy sê leerders van vyf verskillendeskole indie gebiedkonnoual vir driedae lank nie skool bywoon nie.Carin van Schalkwyk Havenga, ’n

inwonervanGrabouw, sêdieonluste“ruk aan haar beursie”.“My kind gaan skool in die Strand,

en ons moet sover elke dag die alter-natiewe roetes gebruik om hom bydie skool te besorg aangesien hullebesig is met ’n toetsreeks. Behalwevir die ekstra tyd wat dit neem, vatdit ook aan die beursie.”Aflewerings in en om Grabouw

konsedertMaandagniegedoenwordnie. Die meeste besighede in die om-gewing, insluitenddie poskantoor, istans gesluit.Selfs brandweerdienste is toegang

totGrabouwgeweiernábetogersvel-de aan die brand gesteek het.Houw Hoek Inn, op die N2 tussen

Grabouw enBotrivier, is ook ernstiggeraak deur die stakings.

’n Sake-eienaar in Grabouw hetDinsdaggesêdieonluste is lankalniemeer ’n betoging nie.“Dit is eerder ’nklompopportunis-

te wat die betoging as ’n rookskermgebruik om spazawinkels en restau-rante te roof en af te breek.”Stephan Rodenbach, bestuurder

van HouwHoek Inn, sê sedert die N2gesluit is, kom geen voertuie verbyop dié pad nie.“Dus word daar middagetes ge-

maak, maar daar is geen besoekersnie, want hulle kan nie toegang tothier verkry nie.”Hy sêHouwHoek InnmoetVrydag

gasheer wees vir ’n groot konferen-sie, maar die konferensiegangersoorweeg nou om te kanselleer as ge-volg van die betogings.“Dit neem nou ongeveer twee uur

of meer om van die Kaap by ons uitte kom, waar dit gewoonlik minderas ’n uur duur.”NicoliLaraduToit, ’n inwonervan

Grabouw, sê hoewel sy nie naby aanwaar die onluste plaasvind, bly nie,trek die klank en dit is skrikwek-kend. “Ons diere is erg getraumati-seer.Toemyaanstaande skoonmabydie huis kom Maandag, het ons 10-jaar oue skaaphond in pyn gelê. Ditblyk sy het geskrik vir al die geraasen van die trappe afgeval. Ons moeshaar inderhaas veearts toe neem.”Volgens die Theewaterskloof-mu-

nisipaliteit word die elektrisiteit virGrabouwnie deur diemunisipaliteitnie, maar direk deur Eskom voor-sien.“Dieproblememetdiepaaiesalons

ondersoek, wat spesifiek uitgewys

dert die onluste uitgebreekhet opdietoneel is, het Woensdagoggend gesêdie situasie is steeds baie gespanne.“Selfs die media word met klippe be-stook en is in die spervuur.”Volgens luitenant Raldene Atson,

is 13mense reeds in hegtenis geneemwat winkels beroof en eiendom be-skadig het.Teen druktyd Woensdagmiddag

het die onluste steeds voortgeduur.) Protesters in and around Gra-

Gr. 8­ en 9­klasseword gestaak by Kleinmond PrimêrELBÉ VAN HEERDEN

Kleinmond-ouers is hoogs on-tevrede ná ’n besluit van dieWes-Kaapse onderwysdepar-tement (WKOD) om graad 8-en 9-klasse byKleinmondPri-mêre Skool te staak.Die skool het tot onlangs

nog onderrig tot graad 9 ge-bied, maar nou sal leerders ófnaHawston óf Grabouwmoetreis om skool te kan gaan.By navraag het die skool-

hoof, Roderick Brikkels, allenavrae na dieWKOD verwys.“Die departement is in ’n be-ter posisie om antwoorde tegee rakende die prosesse watgevolg is.”Volgens Paddy Attwell,

woordvoerder vir die WKOD,het die skool se beheerlig-gaam aansoek gedoen om diegraad 8- en 9-klasse te laat weg-val. “Die skool se beheerliggaamis bekommerd oor die invloedwat die hoërskoolleerders op dieprimêreskoolkindershet.Verde-re redes sluit in dat die onderwy-sers by Kleinmond Primêr nieopgelei is om hoërskoolvakke,soos wiskunde en ekonomiesewetenskappe, aan te bied nie.”VolgensAttwell het dieWKOD

se distrikskantoor die saak tenvolle met die ouers en beheerlig-gaam bespreek. “Alhoewel vandie ouers die besluit teengestaanhet, het die meeste saamgestemmet die skuif.”Die WKOD bied reeds vervoer

aan graad 10-, 11- en 12-leerders

van Kleinmond na Hawston Se-kondêr. “Die graad 8’s en 9’s salvan dieselfde vervoer gebruikmaak indiendieouersbesluit omhul kinders by Hawston in teskryf.Hawstonhet die kapasiteitom die leerders te akkommo-deer.”’n Groep ontevrede ouers het

Maandag ’n vergadering gehouin die Kleinmond-gemeenskap-saal waar hulle die kwessies metdie skool se beheerliggaam woubespreek, maar die beheerlig-gaam en die hoof kon nie die ver-gadering bywoon nie.’nOuer,AltheaOlivier, sêdaar

is vergaderings met die WKODgehou, maar hul vrae is nie be-antwoord nie. “Ons is bekom-

merd oor die invloede waaraanveral die jonger kinders blootge-stelgaanwordinHawston.Eksalverkies om my kinders na Gra-bouw te stuur, maar dan sal onsself vir die vervoer en skoolgeldemoet betaal.“Ons moet reeds nuwe skool-

klere koop en dit gaan sowatR2 000 kos!”Nóg ’n ouer, Gregory Jonas,

het ’n seun wat in Grabouwskoolgaan en moet maandelikssowat R650 opdok vir taxi-geld.“Ek sou verkies dat my kleintjiehier bly tot en met graad 9, maarons word nou verplig om hulleweg te stuur.“Daar isooknie soveel geleent-

hedevirdiekinderswat in-en-uit

moetrynie.Diebussewagnetso lank, dus kanhulle nie aannauurse programme deel-neem nie. Daar is baie talentwat so verlore gaan.”FransienaKilanivoelhulle

word gedwing om meer kos-tes aan te gaan, sonder dathulle tyd gehad het om daar-voor te beplan.“Ons moet ewe skielik al

ons kinders twee jaar vroeërwegstuur endis baieduur.Asek hulle nog twee jaar hierkon hou, kon ek daarvoor be-plan.”Ander ouers voel egter dat

die besluit ’n goeie een is.“Diegraad8’s en9’sboeliediekleintjies,” sê Juanita Ga-lant. “Hulle vloek, baklei engee selfs love bites. Ek het dital baie gesien.”

Die teenargument is egter datdie jonger leerdersookboelies is,selfs van graad 5 of 6, en dat dieskool die leerder moet dissipli-neer om dit te voorkom.WilliamAugust sêhulle het in-

tussen ’n mosie van wantroueteen die skool se beheerliggaamingedien.“Ons het vir hulle sewe dae ge-

gee om te reageer op die skrywe.Daar is sedert Oktober reedskwessies rakende die beheerlig-gaam wat nie kworum kan kryvir vergaderings nie. Hoe kanhulle dan só ’n groot besluitmaak, wat elkeen van ons raak,sonder dat ons vrae begin vra?”Hulle wag tans op ’n antwoord

van die skool se beheerliggaam.

Sommige ouers is ontevrede oor, en gekant teen, die besluit om die graad8­ en 9­klasse van Kleinmond Primêre Skool te sluit aangesien hulle voelhul kant van die saak is nie aangehoor nie en die beheerliggaam besluitesonder hul insette gemaak het. FOTO: ELBÉ VAN HEERDEN

Só lees die kennisgewing tansop die voordeur van LusitaniaSeafoods in die nuwehawenadatdié maatskappy letterlik oornagsy deure gesluit het.Volgens Mary Lunde, algeme-

ne bestuurder by Lusitania FoodProductsinDurban,wasditbloot’n besigheidsbesluit om die win-kel toe te maak, aangesien ditteen ’n verlies bedryf is.“Disnoualvirbaie jarewatdie

maatskappy verliese ly, en hetons, tesamemet die eienaar, RobLea, besluit om eerder die deurete sluit.”Lea, wat Lusitania Seafoods

To ’bant’ ornot to ’bant’?JAN-HENDRIK COETZER

“Do we have to go the grain way or the ani-mal way?” This is the question that has thewhole world debating after Prof Tim No-akes advocated that a “high fat, mediumprotein, low carb” eating plan will secureyou a longer and healthier life as well ashelp you get rid of those extra kilos.

Noakes, professor of exercise and sports sci-enceattheUniversityofCapeTown,inassocia-tionwithWhaleCoast96FMandTheBookCot-tage, visited Hermanus where he shed somelight on his controversial banting diet book,The Real Meal Revolution.The event, held on 11 September at the Inn

AfriKa Guest House & Events venue in Sand-baai, was fully booked with almost 200 peopleattending.Manypeople believe thatNoakes’ statement

is the biggest threat to the science of healthbut he says that is exactly why he wrote thisbook, “so that people can decide for them-selves”.Thebasicprincipleof this eatingplan is sim-

ple: lower your intake of carbohydrates andsugars and load up on all the good fats. Thismeans less bread, potatoes, pizza and sweets,and foods such as cream, cheese, bacon, eggsand avocadoes can be ‘indulged’ in.As a diabetic himself, Noakes believes that

thescientificdiscovery in theUSAin1977, thata lowfatdietwill reduceheart related illnessesas well diabetes, is all untrue.“For all these yearswe believed that cutting

out fat will secure us a healthier life, and it’sall nonsense. We need the fat, our body needsfat, and most of all, our brain needs fat. It isessential for healthy living. And with that I’mnot saying that youmust cut out your carb in-take completely. Just lower your carbs. It isnot fat that will kill you, it is the high carbsthat will put you at risk.”According to Noakes, no scientific study on

any eating plan can be completely accurate.“Formany years wewere led to believe that

eatingfatwillclotourarteriesandleadtoheart

attacks.Butwewereonlytoldthat,itwasnevera scientific fact. The only way you can provesuch a thing is by putting thousands of peopleinquarantineandput themondifferent eatingplans for over a year’s time and then closelymonitor them.Otherwise therecanbenoaccu-rate evidence onwhether fat is good or bad foryou.”Noakessays thatsomewell-knownSouthAf-

ricanssuchasKobusWiese,formerSouthAfri-can rugby player, and Derek Watts, CarteBlanchepresenter, alsostartedbanting.Kobuslost about 30 kg and Derek about 8 kg.“When Iwas interviewed byDerekWatts on

CarteBlancheonthebantingdiet,hepresentedme with a piece of meat with a fat strip on aplate and asked, how are you supposed to eatthis? So I took the knife, cut off the fat and saidtoDerek, nowyou throw away themeat. Obvi-ously the Heart Foundation and everyone elsewere immediately onmycase formaking sucha statement. But like I say, try it and decidefor yourself.”According to Noakes, carbohydrates don’t

make us full, and are also addictive.“For instance, if you eat two eggs in

themorninginsteadofcereal,youwillbe fuller for longer. Eating carbohy-drates for breakfast will leave you

hungry before lunch time, I promise you. Byeating boiled or scrambled eggs instead, youwon’t feel hungry or crave those in-betweensnacks.”He says that it’s very important to stayaway

from any “fat free” or “low fat” food.“If it’s fat free, it means that it has sugar in

it to make it taste like something. And as youknow, large quantities of sugar is unhealthy.Don’t fool yourselves by thinking if you eat fatfree food that it’s more healthy, because it’sjust the opposite.”Many people argue that banting can be very

expensive, but according to Noakes, the bant-ingdiet doesn’t have to cost youmore thanR30a day. “Many people think you now have toeat lamb chops and steak, but you canalso buyliver, sardines, eggs and even afval, which areall high in protein, for much less.”Onaquestion fromtheaudienceonwhether

a vegetarian diet is healthy or not, because it’stotally the opposite from banting, Noakes an-swered “the only healthy vegetarians I knoware the ones who cheat.”

VandalismeopVOSvoetpaadjieJANINE VAN DER RIET

’n Inwoner wie gereeld op die voetpaad-jies tussen Onrus en Sandbaai draf, is ge-skok oor die gereelde nuwe vandalismewat sy weekliks waarneem en volgenshaar aan die toeneem is.

MartinevandenHeever sê syhet opgemerkdat al die skade nie op een slag aangerig isnie.“Sodiekwaaddoenershetdus ’npaarkeerteruggekom deur die loop van die week.”Sy het Dinsdag weer verskeie gedenkteëls

opgemerk wat deur vandaliste verniel is.“Daar is heelwat vandalisme te bespeur op

die Vermont/Onrus/Sandbaai (VOS) paadjiein Sandbaai. Naby die begin van die paadjieaan Schulphoek se kant is een teëltjie toege-verf met ’n vloekwoord langsaan en verderaan op die paadjie is ’n paar teëls beskadigen een heeltemal stukkend gekap.”In Mei-maand het dieHermanus Times ook

oor vandalisme in hierdie gebied berig.Altesaam 20 gedenkteëls is toe op dié kus-

paadjie verniel en moes vervang word.Avril Steenkamp, die voorsitter van VOS,

sê die teëls word teen R2 000 stuk gekoop ternagedagtenis aan ’n geliefde, en word op diekuspaadjie tussen Vermont en Sandbaai aan-gebring. Steenkamp sê hul beleid is dat diebeskadigde teëls ’n maksimum van drie keergratis deur VOS vervang word, maar daarnaisditdie teël-eienaarseverantwoordelikheid.

Van die gedenkteëls is met verf besmeer,stukkend gekap, en vloekwoorde is ooklangs die teëls op die voetpaadjie geverf.

Vriendeverras ‘lady’WilnaCILENE BEKKER

Vriende van die koninginvandieverhoog,aktriseWil-na Snyman, het haar verrasmet ’n verjaardagviering bySprokkelster-teater in On-rus Dinsdagaand.

Wilna het by die teater opge-daag om saam met mede-spe-lers, Adriaan van Niekerk enMagda van Biljon, ’n musiek-en-poësie vertoning te lewer.

Sy was oorstelp toe sy op dieverhoog stap en al die teater-gangers losbars met ’n verjaar-dagliedjie, en moes kort-kort tranewegpink toe oud-teater-kollegas omdie beurt stories vertel oor die daetoe hul paaie met Wilna s’n gekruishet.

Gerhard Scholtz, in sy praatjie,het haar blameer vir sy verhoog-blaps in sy drama-studentdae, toehy uiteindelik beskore was om ’nspreekbeurt-rol los te slaan. “Ekwas baienervous. Toe ons lot van ag-ter die gordyn sien Wilna en haar

man is in die gehoor toe val ek om-trent op my rug. En net daar vergeetek my woorde.” Gerhard het Wilnabeskryf as die somtotaal van die an-der groot vroue in die bedryf. “Alet-ta Gericke. Babs Laker. SuzannevanWyk.Eerlikheid,netheidenele-gansie is wat hierdie drie vroue onsgeleer het, en al hierdie eienskappeis in jou saamgevat.”

Dramaturg en regisseur Deon Op-perman het getuig dat hy meer dra-

masvirWilnageskryfhetasvirenige ander aktrise. “Sy laatmy altyd dink aan die gesegde:Quiet please, there is a lady onthe stage.”

En die bewyse van dié geseg-de is steeds daar. Wilna konmet haar jare se ervaring haargemoed, en oorvloed van emo-sies, bymekaar skraap om diemense met wie haar paaie ge-kruis het, te bedank vir jare seliefde en ondersteuning. “Jullehet my goed onkant gevang, enop hierdie oomblik verlang ekna my ma. Sy het vir my geleer:Youmustalwaysrememberwho

youare,where youare, andwhat youare doing.”

Na pouse het Wilna, Adriaan enMagda hul vertoning gelewer. Hullehet uittreksels voorgelees uit dierolprent Dead Poets Society, en ookuit werke van digters soos HennieAucamp, NP van Wyk Louw, AntjieKrog en Adam Smal. Magda het ookonder meer Franse liedere gesing.

Wilna het 79 geword op 14 Septem-ber.

Gerhard Scholtz het vertel hoeWilna veroorsaak het dat hyin sy drama­studentdae sywoorde tydens ’n verhoogstuktotaal vergeet het.

Theuns en Annemarie van Dyk, saam met Deon Opperman en JanineNeethling was van die gaste in die propvol teater.

Lize van der Walt, Wilna se dogter,steek ’n kers op vir haar pa JaapSmit. Wilna het in haar bedankinggenoem hoe baie sy na haar ma,en haar man, verlang.

TheFynbosCommunityFounda-tion is planning an auction toraise the R600 000 still needed fortheir Hopeland Project inStanford.

The aim is to develop a facilitywhere much-needed after-careservices can be provided for atleast 80 learners (Grade R to 7)from the HOP-land (RDP-hous-ing) area on the outskirts of Stan-ford.

A building in the Stanford in-dustrial area was purchased forR850 000 and the foundation hasbeen given until 31 October toraise the funds.

R250 000 was raised in Junewith a 1 000 km cycle challengeundertaken by Koos and JoanieSmith of the foundation.

“Too many children in poor ar-eas drop out of the school systembecause of difficult circumstan-ces,” says Mr Smith, chairmanthe foundation’s chairman.

“The Hopeland Project hasbeen initiated to give hope tothesechildren.Thecentrewillbea supervised, safe and caring en-vironment where children willreceive a proper lunch, take partin various programs, but mostimportantly, get help with theirhomework and additionallearner support.”

The committee is appealing fordonations like secondhand carsand furniture for the auction.

They already have 13 vehicles tosell, but are hoping to have 20.They would also like to have atleast 50 pieces of furniture to of-fer for sale, as well as any otheritems of value.

“Perhaps you have an old caror bakkie that won’t start, stand-ing under a tree? Or a stick of fur-niture that you no longer need?Any donation would help to bet-ter the lives of a few needy chil-dren in the Stanford area.”

The Fynbos Community Foun-dation, a registered tax-exemptcharity, also runs the FynbosAkademie on LangverwachtFarm in the Papiesvlei area,which caters for about 60learners.

With the help of Agri Mega inBredasdorp, a vegetable gardenhas been established at Langver-wacht to provide fresh vegeta-bles to the learners of FynbosAkademie and in future will alsosupply the Hopeland Centre.

The project committee con-sists of a medical doctor, a clinicsister, a nutritional expert andothers with training in art, mu-sic and sport.

There are also experts regard-ing policing, finances and a rep-resentative of Badisa.

Municipalmanagers salaries todecreaseJANINE VAN DER RIET

A new Government notice has been pub-lished with regard to the maximum sal-ary notches for officials like municipalmanagers by the minister of Coopera-tive Governance and Traditional Af-fairs (CoGTA), Pravin Gordhan.

This notice determines a revised upperlimit for the remuneration packages appli-cable to senior managers inclusive of mu-nicipal managers at municipalities.

According toa list of all theWesternCapemunicipalities where the salary packagesare set out, it seems that the salaries of 26municipal managers must on average bedecreased with R300 000 per year.

The current annual salary of the Over-strand municipal manager is R1 659 212,according to the list. The new maximumlimit for the OverstrandMM, set by the na-tional departement, is R1 191 500.

This salary paid to the OM municipalmanager at present, is the second highestpaid salary for municipal managers in theWestern Cape.

GeorgeMunicipality is taking the salaryleadwith R1 680 692 annually, with the newmaximum limitation of R 1 449 390 annual-ly.

Anton Bredell MEC: Local Government,Environmental Affairs and DevelopmentPlanning said to the Hermanus Times onTuesday, thenoticedoesprovide for transi-tional provisions which, amongst others,state that the salaries in the notice do notaffect the validity of an existing employ-ment contract of a senior manager.

“Therefore, with regard to what is to bedone, one cannot reduce current packagesas thatwouldvery likelybe–amongstotherthings – a breach of contractual law. Thecurrent levels of remuneration may there-fore remain in place.”

Minister Bredell agrees that salariesneed to be regulated but says he is alsoaware that the current notice has practicalimplementation challenges and thesemusturgently be addressed.

The minister is still consulting with thenational department and other stakehold-ers on the issue.

The provisions of the Notice became ef-fective as of 1 July 2014.

) In the Overstrand Municipality’s ope-rating budgets for 2014/2015, salaries weredecreased with R564 968, while provisionwas made for another decrease, more thanR3.5 M in the years 2015-16 and 2016-17.

According to the budget report, the de-crease amount will be generated by vacan-cies not filled.

Savings of R62 435 is shown on the sala-ries of municipal managers and directors,with more savings to come in the next twofinancial years.

So waar as vetNouhet Prof TimNoakes se omstrede “hoëvet, lae koolhidrate”­dieet ook Overstran­ders aan die gons.Dit nadat Noakes op Donderdag 11

September sowat 200 mense in Sandbaaitoegespreekhet oor sybanting­dieet.Dou-ble Cream jogurt vlieg van die rakke af,biltong met ekstra vet is skielik gewild, ou“Wagter” is knorrig, want die varktjop sevetrandjie of hoendervelletjie beland niemeer in sy kosbak nie en dan is daar selfsrestaurante wat as alternatiewe opsie die“banting”­spyskaart voor jou inskuif.Vir al die jare al glo ons dat baie vet

in die dieet sleg is vir ons gesondheid, vet­sug kan veroorsaak en verskeie hartsiektesteweeg kan bring. En hier kom Noakes engooi behoorlik die hele appellorrie omdeur te sê dat as jy meer vet eet en joukoolhidrate en suiker laag hou, jy gewigsal verloor en baie gesonder sal voel.Is hierdie alles feit of flater?Of jy jou skaar by dié wat saamstem of

dié wat galbraak, Noakes se antwoord iskort en kragtig, “probeer dit en besluitself.”

Costs of building materi-als do differWith reference to the “Just asking” letter inthe Hermanus Times of 4 September:

Firstly the writer shares no facts and isclearly oblivious to the fact that along thecoast and inland building materials differ asdo theirpricing.This letternotonlyquestionsthe integrity of building material suppliers inthe area but also quantity surveyors, estima-tors and contractors alike, and their abilityor inability to procure material cost effective-ly.

The fact that the writer quotes that a rollof dampproof in Hermanus costs R1 500 andin Johannesburg costs R500, is a clear indica-tion they have no idea of building materialand the difference in building practice be-tween inland and coastal areas and materialused and why. The cost of building along thecoast has and will always be more expensiveas a result of our extreme climate difference.Material and building practice required to ac-commodate for that, naturally comes at ahigher cost. With regards to the window anddoor scenario we have a local Cape-based na-tionalwindowanddoorsupplierthathasvari-ous quality and thickness ranges availableand even certain cheaper ranges not availablefor re-sale along the coast, hence the abilityto adjust their pricing accordingly to accom-modate the writer. If low cost housing andbuilding practice is what the writer is accus-tomed to, I suggest they relocate their opera-tion to areas suited for that. We are availableto assist with any building advice or buildingmaterial pricing related queries and will en-sure that you receive the right product at theright price for the right application.

Onrusrivier-oorlaaistasie: voor- en nadeleDie huidige polemiek aangaande die oor-laaistasie en moontlike oplossings, veraldie plasing van vullishouers (staaldrom-me) by wonings, verg noukeurige besin-ning sodat die voor- en die nadele van sen-tralisasie en desentralisasie deeglik oor-weeg kan word.

Kortliks: Met die bestaande oorlaaista-siefasiliteite word/is die “probleem” ge-nadiglik gesentraliseer en in ’n mate be-stuurbaar. Maar, met desentralisasiewaar vullishouers by wonings geplaasword, word, o.a. twee addisionele potensi-ele probleme geskep.

Eerstesgaanhierdiemensediestrate in-vaar om die vullishouers te deursoek – ’npraktyk wat hom weekliks in die Kaap af-speel.

Op dié wyse word ’n eiesoortige pro-bleem van groter omvang geskep omdatrommelstrooiingopsulkedaeaandieordevan die dag is.

So ’n omgewingsprobleem sal van veelgroter omvang wees as tans by die oorlaai-stasie, en gaan met die beste wil in die wê-reld nie maklik hanteerbaar wees nie.

Ten tweede skep desentralisasie ook ’npotensiële veiligheidsrisiko. Weereens,

omdat diesulkes genoodsaak is/word omin die woonbuurte in te beweeg kan eien-domme en permanente inwoners veelmakliker geidentifiseer en geteiken word.

Dit is dus na my mening duidelik dat de-sentralisasie, benewens die omgewings-probleme en veiligheidsrisiko’s wat ditkan meebring, nie volhoubaar kan of gaanwees nie.

Die bestaande gesentraliseerde bestel,ten spyte van die huidige nadele, bied da-rem ten minste ’n meer hanteerbare be-stuursopsie en, laat ons dit nou maar er-ken, dra darem by tot netjieser en skonerwoonbuurte.

Ten slotte moet ek ook meld dat ’n voor-stel vir die plasing van ’n “staal-drom”summier voor my huis sonder myinspraak onaanvaarbaar is.

Ek heg groot waarde aan die estetiesevoorkoms van my huis en omgewing enaanvaar al vir baie jare, op my eie koste,die verantwoordelikheid om die “sypaad-jies” van my hoekerf skoon en netjies tehou.

’n “Staaldrom” gaan ek beslis nie duldnie.

Wat ’n nagmerrie honde-stappieOns het met ons twee honde, aan leibandjies,Saterdagoggend in Ixiastraat gaan stap na dieparkie. By die parkie het ons die leibandjiesuitgehak en ons honde het heerlik rondge-hardloop.

Geen gemors by die parkie nie, behalwe “nr1.” Met die terugkeer het ek vir my man gesêdat die straat so stil is, ons honde nie aggres-sief is nie, en ons hulle bandjies nie hoef inte hak nie.

In Wesendstraat het ons teruggestap op padhuis toe. Daar het ’n wit bakkie baie stadigin die straat aangery gekom en het ons betydsons honde op die sypaadjie geneem.

Die stadige bakkie is verby en ons het netbeginverderstap, toe tweewilleswartgevaar-tes - dink dis wolfhonde?, van agteraf op onsafgestorm kom.

Die een was baie aggressief en het my dier-bare wit hond van agter bespring en op haarrug/nek gebyt. Gelukkig dat ek die leibandjiein my hand gehad het, anders was my handen arms in die slag.

Ek het geskree en die swart gevaarte pro-beer wegkry deur die leibandjie te gebruik omorals te slaan. My man het intussen die anderswart hond probeer keer van ons Jack Russell

af, want ek ys wat sou gebeur het indien hymy klein hondjie net een hap sou gee!

Met ons gesukkel om die swart gevaartesvan ons twee liefdevolle honde weg te kry, hethul baas, net so ’n entjie voor ons, in die bak-kie bly sit, en alles gesien. Hy het nie uitge-klim of sy honde geroep of gefluit nie, net allesgesit en aanskou.

Dit was Harcourts se agent, wat êrens agterons was, wat alles gesien en stilgehou het engevra het of alles okay is. Ons het by die eie-naar van die twee swart honde se huis verby-gestap, waar hulle weer deur die draad onsaggressief aangeval het, maar die baas wasnie in sig nie.

Ons wil die eienaar net waarsku om sulkeonnosele dinge nooit weer te doen nie, wantander honde sal dalk nie so gelukkig soos onss’n wees nie.

Almal sê ons moet polisie toe gaan, maaromdat ons nie hou van onenigheid nie, doenons dit nie. Maar asb. eienaar van hierdiehonde, neem hulle ver uit die dorp vir ’n stap-pie, want elke hond verdien dit, maar asb niein ons strate nie.

Shocking facts regardingAfrican Bank sagaThank you for publishing the letter of JJBreitenbach last week, “Stay alert people”

I was alerted to the following shocking fact:My Money Market account had been plun-

dered, reduced, without any consultation orconsent, to keep a sinking ship afloat. Thiscalled ABIL (African Bank to most). I havebeenusingtheaccount for thecorrectpurposefor which it has been designed i.e a small sav-ing to cater for emergencies and recently solda vehicle to purchase my camper. The state-ment reflects two deductions, R336 called aunit deduction or a “haircut”. This is appar-ently non returnable and my donation to AB-IL. The other R3 311 an ABIL retention fundcalled a “side pocket”. Apparently but notguaranteed, this could be refunded with inter-est in February 2015. Once again, those of uswho save (as we are requested to do) and thoseof us who have deprived ourselves of extrava-gances have been targeted. I never saw Afri-can Bank as a viable business model and haveselectedwhatIconsiderstable institutionsformy funds.

I must ask what action is being taken to holdofficials accountable. The CEO’s monumentto self indulgence stands proud on an outcropat Pringle Bay. If the “side pocket” is goingto be repaid why did AB not have sufficientdebt collection to keep the business afloat inthe first place? Are investors expected tostand by and allow funds to be further plun-dered, together with worsening services andincreasing taxes or is there any form of collec-tive action in the pipeline?

Uncertainties around, and issues raised, bythe ABIL saga will be addressed in the nextFINMONITOR - HT Business Times, 16 Octo-ber issue. - ED.

Wildhorses in Fisherhavenare anuisance

We have written a letter to the health depart-ment, but have had no response from them,regarding the wild horses in Fisherhavenwhich are a nuisance.

Is nobody taking any actions until an acci-dent wakes up the authorities?

Our letter to the health department readsas follows:

Dear Ms. Erasmus.We have queried some time ago by phone

the problem with the so-called wild horses inFisherhaven.

They are really stray horses and up to tenof them are here on a daily basis, fouling thestreets right up to and onto the R 43, fightingsometimes and damaging private property.

This is not a farming area where manure isproperly managed.

We like to see the horses when they are intheir proper environment. They belong to anarea such as Rooisand and have to be takenand contained there.

We can see a problem with flies and otherpests proliferating if the municipality doesnot remove the horses from Fisherhaven.

Would it be legal to keep horses here in oursuburbs?

Can residents keep horses in Westcliff orin other central wards?

We trust, that you deal with this matter ur-gently.

THOMAS + MARION NIEMEYER

Bonusreën vir dammeDie weerglas het Dinsdagaand begin val van 1010 hPatot 1004 hPa. Hoogtyd, want ons is net agt weke vansomeraf.Vironswatalbeginglohetonsmisdiewinter-reëns, is dit ’n troos.

Dis ’n bonus vir die opgaardamme van die Overbergwant ons kan ’n goeie 37 tot 40 mm in die volgende 30uur verwag. Vandag van 11:00 tot 17:00 is die hardsteneerslag van oor 20 mm.

Enkele lesers had die afgelope week vrae oor diegoeie nuus dat die gat in die osoonlaag besig is om teherstel, maar die slegte nuus is dat die osoonlaag netdaarisomonsteengevaarlikestralevandiesonfakkels(sonuitbarstings) en violetstrale te beskerm.

Klimaatverandering het net te doen met die elfjarigeovaalsiklus van die son, wat volgens Hennie Koortzvan die Sterrewag in Kaapstad, dalk die komende paardae internetgebruikers onthuts gaan los as hul selfoneskielik simpel goed begin doen. Die diensverskaffersmoet tog nie die skuld kry nie. Trek liewer genoeg geldvir kontant in die huis vir ingeval, want die banke isnie immuun teen internetonderbrekings nie.

Oor die Overberg se weer kan ons maar net weereensdankbaar wees vir die unieke posisie wat die Overbergin die weersiklus het, soveel so dat daar soms twyfelis of ons wel in ’n winterreënvalstreek is. Wat wel ver-staan word is dat die ganse wêreld se weer tans op sy

kop gekeer is. In die noordelike halfrond watal byna winter het, woed nog tropiese stormsen hier by ons is plekke wat gewoonlik warmis, skielik koud en die koue plekke warmer.

Ook Sutherland is in die veiligheidsone vanuiterstes. Dié area wat vir Weerhaan altoos ’nmonitor op die grafieke is, bly eenvoudig koudas die son sak.

Die noordwes wat die vog indra het skyn-baar in die huidige stand van die son ’n reguitlyn Overberg toe. Die die rede waarom dit sois, is dat die elfjaar-ovaalbaan van die son ’nlyn tussen die noord en suidpool het. Dit worddie Ourora Ovaal genoem. Dit lyk of die huidi-ge verskuiwing van die son se baan die minsteuitwerking op die lyn tussen die magnetiesepole het. Ons kan dalk so bietjie links of regsuit wees.

Hierdie elfjaarsiklus had die Britte twee eeugelede byna histeries toe die Teems gevries heten eers twee somers later ontdooi het.

Heavy rains are expected in the Overstrand on Thursday, withup to 40 mm forecast. Cold temperatures can also be expected.The rain will clear up over the weekend, but cooler tempera-tures of 11 °C will be prevalent.

HOSPICE LUCKY DRAW: The OverstrandHospice 600 Club draw took place on Thurs­day 11 September and Greg Rethman (cen­tre), owner of Midas Earthcote in Hermanus,drew the winning numbers.

There are family gatherings, andthen there is Dommisse DayWhen the extended Dommisse family decidesit’s time to reconnect, it is a gathering of note.On Saturday a Dommisse Day was held at

the home of the Malans (Mary Dommisse’sson) in Voëlklip and it was attended by 68 de-scendants and their families.

According to Neil Malan, the Dommissefamily has a long history in Hermanus.Dr Jan Dommisse (born in Piketberg in

1879) retired to Peter Pan in Luyt Street (for-merly Theron Street) in the early 1940s, hand-ing over his Worcester practice to his son

John.Dr John (snr) had a house

called “Suikerbossie” at thattime and later built “Berg enSee”. Both these homes are inVoëlklip.“The family still owns that

house and the descendants areoften seenonVoëlklipBeachorKammabaai,” says Neil.Gathering the family is no

mean feat as they are widespread and plentiful.“At last count Dr Jan is the

forefather of 110 direct de-scendants living as far afield asCanada, Australia, England,Italy and the USA.”

The photo shows the part of the second gen­eration of Dr Jan Dommisse: Chris Malan, DrGeorge Dommisse, Liz Hutton, Adrian Dom­misse, Neil Malan and Anne Eadie.

Wessie van der Westhuizen het oorgeneemas nuwe eienaar van die Edge Fitness Gymop die boonste vloer van die Eastcliff VillageInkopiesentrum op 1 September.Volgens Van der Westhuizen, voorheen

van Fochville in Gauteng, is dit sy streween mikpunt om 100% by die gimnasium be-trokke te wees.“Ek gaan alles in my mag doen om weer

die diensfaktor terug te bring. Ek kompeteerself as dit kom by liggaamsbou, so ek sal virseker die meeste van my tyd by die gimnasi-um deurbring.”Die gimnasium word tans aan die binne-

kant oorgeverf en Wessie sê hulle beoog omdie uitleg daarvan te verbeter en om ook ’nwinkeltjiebinnediegimnasiumoop temaak.

“My ander besigheid is die verspreidingvan Gorilla Wear, ’n sportklerereeks wat ekin Suid-Afrika bemark.“Sodieklerereeks, saammet liggaamsbou-

Changeofownershipunderwayat EastcliffVillageCentreJAN-HENDRIK COETZER

Eastcliff Village Shopping Cen-tre is undergoing quite a fewchanges with regards to a newlandlord, and some of the busi-nesses trading in the centrehave already changed hands.

According to Keith Muirheadfrom the property company Point-Break,who is in theprocess of tak-ing over Eastcliff Centre fromADEK, thetransferhasnotyet tak-en place.“For this reason it will be inap-

propriate for me to comment onanything at this stage.”Greg Altona-de Klerk from

ADEK, the company selling theproperty, also confirmed that thetransfer is not yet official and thattheycannotelaborateat thispoint.In the meantime the gym, Edge

Fitness Club, has been taken overby a new owner, Wessie van derWesthuizen, the carwash is nowowned by David Cooper and willreopen soon, and the bookshop,bookmark, is moving to MainRoad (as reported in last week’sHT).

JAN-HENDRIK COETZER

The carwash at Eastcliff VillageShopping Centre is undergoing afacelift and will soon open underthe new ownership of David Coop-er.Cooper, who had a carwash in

England for almost 40 years,moved to Hermanus 11 years ago,and since then he had beenwatch-ing this business “like ahawk”, hesays.So, when the opportunity came

along, he started negotiating, andproposed many new ideas on howto improve this carwash.“To date I have already spent

about R250 000 on upgrading thepremises. Thewhole floorwas allbits of brick and concrete, which makes itvery difficult to wash the cars properlywithout damaging them.“I ripped out the floor and put in a new

one. I’ve also built a new chemical and oilseparation plant. This insures that the oil

and chemicals get separated so only purewater comes out at the end.”Cooper says he has bought new equip-

ment too, such as the machinery, vacuumcleaners and dryers. New aluminiumwin-dow frames have been fitted as well as a

newgarage door, lighting and a se-curity system.He aims to open thecarwash this month still, “but ifnot on schedule, definitely beforethe Whale Festival”.He intends to operate the car

washsevendaysaweek,comerainor shine.

) Cooperalsoextendedhisbusi-ness footprint to Bot River by be-coming the new owner of theShunting Shed two months ago.He had invested some money

here too and revamped the wholekitchen. “I have built in amassivenewpizza oven,which can take upto 20 pizzas at a time. For the restof the interior and themenu, Iwillkeep it as is for now. We will havelive music and customers can ex-

pect top quality food, service and occasion-al live music with no extra cover charge,”says Cooper.Chef Helen Butler will be the head chef

and will assist with the running of thebusiness.

A court case, initiated by a group of build-ing contractors in the Overstrand, againstthe Minister of Labour and the BuildingIndustry Bargaining Council (Cape ofGood Hope) has finally been concludedwith the dismissal of the case.“The case has been dismissed with costs

awarded to theminister and theBIBC,” ex-plained Arnold Williams, Secretary forBuilding Industry Bargaining Council(Cape ofGoodHope) in the press statementreleased earlier this week.Contractors in the building industry

contested the issue of jurisdiction and the

extension of the Collective Agreement tonon-parties. This related to theMinister ofLabour’s decision to extend theBIBC’s jur-isdiction, as from 1 April 2011, to includeGansbaai, Hangklip, Hermanus, Klein-mond and Stanford. TheMinister later ex-tended theBIBC’sCollectiveAgreement tonon-parties.“Employers within the Overstrand Mu-

nicipality are in breach of the law if theychoose not to comply with the currentBuilding Industry Bargaining Council’semployment conditions as laid out in theIndustry’s Collective Agreement,” added

Williams.During the proceedings, which dragged

on for twoyears, thecourtorder stated thatthe BIBC had the right to take non-compli-ant contractors to arbitration to enforcecompliance.Thecouncilwill thuscontinueto enforce the collective agreement in thearea.“As much as we usually try to avoid liti-

gation, we are pleased that the case hasbeen concluded and that we can continueto ensure that the compliance agreementthat has the Department of Labour’s ap-proval, is enforced.” Williams added.

General cleanliness rated, but CBDaesthetics slated

In sy 2012 Begrotingsrede het die destydseMinister van Finansies, Pravin Gordhan,aangekondig dat Tesourie ’n proses vanbetekenisvolle hervormings binne aftree-fondse gaan implementeer. Sedertdien isaansienlike vordering gemaak en wordmeeste vandie voorgestelde veranderingedeur die loop van 2015 voltooi.Die breë beleidsdoelwitte van die voor-

gestelde hervormings behels onder meer:Verpligte (outomatiese) inklusiwiteit;

beter bewaring van beleggers se aftreebe-lange; verbeterde openbaarmaking deuraftreefondse (insluitend deursigtige enverlaagde fooistrukture); vereenvoudi-ging van aftreeprodukte; moeitelose oor-draagbaarheid van belange tussen pro-dukverskaffers enmeereffektieweregula-sie van die industrie in geheel.Om die industrie te vereenvoudig en

derhalwe makliker of meer verstaanbaarte maak is egter makliker gesê as gedaan.Daar is talle produkte en fondse beskik-baar waarbinne beleggers kan spaar viraftreevoorsiening. Dit is die verantwoor-delikheid van portefeuljebestuurders enaftreebeplanners om binne dié hervor-mings, dieprosesvanvereenvoudigingenopenbaarmaking te ondersteun en beleg-gers te adviseer betreffende al dié opsies.Derhalwe wy ons graag hierdie artikel

daaraan om die beskikbare aftreebeplan-ning-opsies en keuses so eenvoudigmoontlik uiteen te sit.Hierdie opsies het feitlik almal sekere

belastingvoordele wat óf gedurende diespaarperiode, óf na/tydens aftrede vantoepassing is.Onshouvireersdie spesifie-ke belastingvoordele of -implikasies oor,aangesien dit opsigself ’n belangrike ensoms komplekse aspek is om in gedagte tehou tydens aftreebeplanning.Aftreeprodukte word basies in twee ka-

tegorieë verdeel, naamlik dié vóór aftredeen die ná aftrede. Voor-aftredeprodukte

verwys na die beleggingsvoertuie waarinbeleggers hul bydraes kan plaas om voor-siening temaakviraftrede.Hierdiebydra-es kan eenmalig of gereeld (byvoorbeeldmaandeliks, kwartaalliks, jaarliks) vanaard wees, of ’n kombinasie daarvan.Hierdie produktebestaanuit uittree-an-

nuïteite, pensioenfondse asook voorsorg-fondse (elk met sy eie voordele en belas-tingimplikasies). Bewaringsfondse kwali-fiseer ook as voor-aftredeprodukte, enword gebruik wanneer beleggers bv vanwerkveranderofbedankennognieaftree-ouderdom bereik het nie, terwyl daar op-gehoopte fondse binne hul werkgewer seaftreefondse lê.Na-aftredeprodukte kom in gedrang so-

dra die belegger aftree-ouderdom bereik(minimum 55) en aftree uit die betrokkeaftreefonds. Tipiese opsies by aftrede be-paal dat ’n sekere deel (gewoonlik 1/3) inkontant geneemkanword, terwyl ’n annu-iteit (of pensioen) met die balans aange-koop moet word, of die fondse kan in ’nlewende annuïteit geplaas word, waar be-leggers hul vlak van inkomste kan kies enjaarliks kan aanpas (binne sekere perke).Weereens het elke opsie sy eie voordele

en toepaslikheid wat verskil van beleggertot belegger.Die keuse van die mees toepaslike pro-

duk om voorsiening te maak vir aftredesal bepaal word deur elke belegger se eiedoelwitte en behoeftes.Kostes speel uiteraard ’n deurslagge-

wende rol en beleggers moet daarop aan-dring dat alle kostes tydens die besluitne-mingsproses geopenbaar word.Watter aftreeproduk of -voertuig egter

ook al gekies word, die mees belangrikeaspek tydensdiebeplanningsprosesviraf-

tree-voorsiening, is die samestelling vandie onderliggende beleggings wat die op-brengste moet lewer wat uiteindelik diefondse tydens aftrede moet voorsien.Dis hier waar sake ingewikkeld raak.

Benewens sekere regulasies wat van toe-passing is op die onderliggende beleg-gingsinstrumente wat ingesluit magword, is daar letterlik honderde fondse enopsies tot beleggers se beskikking.Beleggers moet toesien dat hul swaar-

verdiende bydraes optimaal aangewendword.

Aftree-hervormings:Geleenthedevir suksesFINMONITORTheo Cloete, Portfolio-bestuurder,PSG Batebestuur, Hermanus

The Executive Committee (Exco) of the Her-manus Ratepayers Association (HRA) hasbeen concerned that itmaynot bedoingwhatmembers want, and it initiated a survey inJuly to gaugemembers’ attitudes to the levelof service being provided, mostly by the Mu-nicipality,aswellasviewsaboutvariouscur-rent issues facing ratepayers of HermanusAspointedoutbyBobStanway,HRAchair-

man, theresultsonlyapplytotheward3area,the area of the HRA. “They would probablybe very different for other wards.”Thesurveywasadministeredandanalysed

by Doug Parker, who is an HRA Exco mem-ber, as well as being an experienced marketresearcher – and at no cost to the HRA.”AllHRAmembersonemail (some370)were

given the opportunity to participate. A totalof 66 members completed the survey withinthe survey period.Results relating to quality of services:HRAmembers’ responses to the quality of

various (mostly Municipal) services beingprovidedwas overwhelmingly positive, withthe majority of members scoring good to ex-cellent ratings.The top positive-rated services were:1. Cleanliness of the general area2. Activeness of Fernkloof, and3. Maintenance of the cliff path4. Maintenance of infrastructure and5. Beach maintenance.The weakest (top negative-rated) service:1. Management of the Klein River Lagoon2. Standards and aesthetics of the CBD3. Quality of policing4. Quality of Law Enforcement, and5. Quality of HPP services.“The very poor rating of management of

the Klein River Lagoon is probably relatedto the repeated sewerage spills at the ScoutCamp sewerage pump station, associatedhealth hazards and the negative effect ontourism, while the CBD aesthetics ratingwould seem to relate to the serious declinein the quality of shops and businesses in thewest end of the CBD.”“Of considerable significance is that three

of theworst fiveservicesrelatedtothe“crimeprevention/law enforcement” category pro-videdbythreedifferentinstitutionsbeingtheSA Police Service (SAPS), the municipalityand Hermanus Public Protection (HPP), pos-

sibly implying thatbetter institutional co-op-eration and co-ordination in “crime preven-tion/law enforcement”might result in great-er synergy and much better service to thepublic,” said Stanway.Resultsrelatingtolistedcurrentissues:Results showedgeneral agreementwith all

propositions other than the need for a bypassroad, which was by far the most opposed is-sue.There was almost unanimous agreement

that:1. Dogs should have a specific area where

they may be allowed to run free and2. Dogs should be kept on leads in all publicplaces.“There was less overall agreement about

dogs being allowed to run free on the beacheswithin set times, but the resultwasneverthe-less one of agreement.” said Stanway.The survey also showed strong support for

therevitalisationoftheCBDandfairlystrongsupport for pedestrianisation of the MainRoad in the CBD.“Interestingly, therewasalsoafairamount

of support for the proposed Sandbaai Mall.”Other issues raisedNumerous other individual issues were

put forward by members, such as:) Costs for services charged by the Over-

strand Municipality are too high) Only charge for CBD parking in-season

and over long weekends) There is a need for more cycle paths) Control CBD architectural standards

and try to retain fishing village character) Refuse removal and management is ex-

cellent and should be commended) Baboons are a really serious problem.

Besides baboon monitors, the use of baboon-proof bins should be enforced

)Grottowetlandneedstobere-established)Need to investigate and test new technol-

ogies to generate electricity) Opposition to the proposed Mitchell

street development) Enforcement of traffic laws.“In summary, it is quite clear that HRA

members who responded are proud of theirtown and believe it is being pretty well man-aged,” said Stanway, adding that they, theHRA exco, does need to direct its work to trytohelp improve the services that scoredmost

poorly, and to try to help resolve the issuesof most concern to members, namely;

) Klein River estuary management) Crime prevention/law enforcement) Alternatives to the Bypass) Revitalisation of the CBD) A place or places to run dogs.

Maak joueie liplekker sosatiesLISE BEYERS

’n Televisie-advertensie waarinNataniël “sosaties” adverteer,het heelwat polemiek ontketen.

Talle koskenners het gal gebraakhieroor. Hulle hou vol dat niks be-halwe skaapblokkies wat in ’n ker-riesous laat lê is, sosaties is nie.

Ek wil nie betrokke raak by diékwessie nie, maar ek moet byvoeg,deur die jare as ek die woord sosatiehoor, dan dink ek dadelik aan heer-like blokkies skaapvleiswat in ’n ef-fe soet-suur kerriesousie laat lê is.

Ekmaakweldikwels andervaria-sies van vleis, vis of hoender wat op’n stokkie geryg is, maar dan noemek dit self stokkiesvleis.

Sobevindekmyselfbymygunste-ling slaghuis waar ek mooi vra vir’n skaapboud – so ’n tweetand werkbeter as lam vir sosaties. My slagterontbeen hom en ek is huiswaarts.

Ekmoetnetbyvoegdatvarkboud-

vleis en hoederborsies ’n smaaklikeplaasvervanger is vir skaapvleis.

Vir die sous begin ek deur tweeuie, in dikkerige ringe gesny, stadigin ’n eetlepel sonneblomolie tebraai. As die uieringe byna deur-skynend is, word twee fyngemaakteknoffelhuisies bygevoeg.

Voeg dan twee of drie eetlepelskerriepoeier by, ’n eetlepel borrie,’nkoppieasynen ’nkleinblikkieap-pelkooskonfyt, asook drie gekneus-desuurlemoenblare, ’npaarheelpe-perkorrels en twee heel naeltjies.

Daar moet ’n goeie balans weestussen soet en suur, en as die eendie ander oorheers, gooi óf ’n bietjiesuiker óf asyn by totdat die smaakvir jou reg is.

As jy nog meer byt wil hê, kan ’nbietjie rissie bygevoeg word.

Laat die marinade vir 15 minuteverderprutenhaaldanvandiehitteaf. As die sous afgekoel het, meng’n halwe koppie Bulgaarse of Griek-se jogurt daarby – dit is na my per-

soonlike smaak, en dit werk.Sny nou die boud in blokkies op,

so een duim by een duim, en giet dieafgekoelde marinade daaroor,asook ’n pakkie gedroogte appelko-sies.

As jou cholesterolvlakke dit toe-laat, sny repe varkspek in blokkiesen voeg dit ook by. Klein blokkiesui is ook lekker tussenin.

En so moet die vleis vir minstens24 uur marineer, maar my beskeiemening is egter drie dae.

Voordat jy die sosaties aanme-kaarslaan,weekdiehoutstokkies inkoue water. Ryg dan so dat jy tweestukkies vleis, dan ’n stuk spek ryg,dan weer vleis, dan appelkoos, weervleis, en dan ui.

Sosaties word oor matige kole ge-braaiendieroosterwordgereeldge-draai om te verhoed dat hulle niebrand nie.

Smeer die sosaties kort-kort metdie orige marinade. Hulle behoortnie langer as 15 minute te braai nie.

PARTMINI-BIKE, PARTMOTORCYCLE:A TOUGH, URBAN EDGE

HondaLaunches2014MSX125QUICKPIC

Manufactured in Thailand, theMSX125 is small enough to be su-premely manageable yet also hasafully-fledgedfeel thankstosomestandard sized motorcycle parts.It is part mini-bike, part motorcy-cle with involving performancematched to confident handlingand styling that combines a senseof fun with a tough, urban edge.

Its well-proven and efficient 125ccfuel-injected engine has been furtherrefined for even greater economyplus smooth torque and power deliv-ery, and also features a motorcycle-style four-speed gearbox and clutch.Complementing the powerplant is acompact chassis that features a stur-dy steel frame, inverted front fork,monoshock rear suspension, hy-draulic disc brakes front and rearand lightweight 12-inch wheelssporting wide, low profile tyres.

Four patents were applied forthrough development of the MSX125,focused around the split structuretank cover and frame, proof of justhow seriously this bike is taken byHonda. Small it may be, but in termsof worldwide sales, brand awarenessand owner satisfaction, its impacthas been large.

Priorities for theMSX125’schassiswere threefold: it needed to providethe base for a practical bike that newriders could use – and park – withease in an urban environment. Butit also needed to be just as useableand enjoyable out of town, and alsoreadily accept a pillion.

A steel mono-backbone frame hasbeen employed. Its rigid, square-sec-tiontubejoinstheheadstockdirectlyto the swingarm pivot plates and ev-ery other part in effect hangs visiblyfrom the frame, greatly contributingto the MSX125’s minimalist look.Specifically tuned vertical/horizon-

tal rigidity and flex in the swingarmpivot and engine hanger plates pro-vides the perfect balance of comfortand confidence.

The new frame structure has alsoenabled efficient storage of PGM-FI-related components and electricalparts inside the tank cover withoutreducing fuel capacity (5,5 litres).Wheelbase is a snug 1200 mm, withrake and trail of 250 and 81 mm andkerb weight of 101,7kg. The MSX125has a low 765 mm seat height makingit very manageable; its size also en-sures that holiday makers are sureto find it easy to load/unload, trans-port and use.

Another aim for the MSX125 wasto provide ‘beyond class’ suspensionquality. The 31 mm USD fork – a firstfor Honda on a 125cc motorcycle – re-duces unsprung weight and thanksto the pistons’ greater pressure-bear-ing area (compared to a standard tel-escopic fork) offers improved damp-ing feel throughout the stroke. The

top and bottom yokes are full-sized,further enhancing handling and rid-er feelwhilealightweightandrobustsingle rear shock operates a simpleand tough H-shape, 50 mm x 25 mmsteel box section swingarm.

Fundamental to the MSX125’sform andfunction are its12-inchcastaluminium wheels, which featurewide 2,5-inch rims. New ‘Y’ shapedspokes not only look great they alsosave weight and the front 120/70-12and 130/70-12 rear tyres also inject adifferent dynamic, both in terms oflooks and performance. Hydraulicdual piston front and single pistonrear brake calipers work front220 mm and rear 190 mm discs.

The MSX125 uses a combined pro-jector headlight – not only does thisfeature give the front of the bike astrong identity and presence, it alsouses a single light source (an HS135W/35Wdouble filamentbulb)rath-er than a pair of bulbs for both highand low beam. Low beam is generat-

ed by the upper projection unit andhigh beam is produced by multi-re-flectorswhichspreadout in its lowersection. A subtle blue light flanks theprojector lens and adds characterand visibility while the bright LEDtaillight melts seamlessly into thebike’s stubby silhouette.

Easy to read for its compact size,the LCD digital dash delivers all theinformation the rider needs – speed-ometer, twin trip meters, fuel gaugeand clock. Resetting the trip metersand clock, or alternation betweenodometer and trip meter is viaswitches either side of the display.

The MSX125’s 125cc two-valve air-cooled engine is based on one of Hon-da’s most well-proven power units;recently employed in the Wave 125i,over 930 000 have been producedsince initial introduction in 2003,and it’s won universal praise overthe last decade for fuel efficiency,ease of use and longevity.

Furtherdevelopmentof theenginefor the MSX125 has resulted in im-proved fuel economy; the engine us-es low-friction technology such as anoffset cylinder and a roller-rockerarm for the valve gear. Reducingcrank inertia has also resulted in im-proved throttle feel and a smoothpower delivery.

Imparting a motorcycle feel to theMSX125, the four-speed gearbox ismanaged via manual clutch and of-fers smooth and consistent gearchanges. The 15T gearbox sprocket,34T final drive sprocket and 12-inchwheels deliver lively around-townresponse plus the ability to travelslowly in a high gear – perfect forthreading easily through tight traf-fic.

Sophisticated PGM-FI guaranteeshighly efficient combustion, andworks in conjunction with both airintake and exhaust to deliver an in-volving experience at the throttle.The air intake connecting tube and

funnel is divided in two, allowing itslength to be optimised for consistenttorque delivery at low and mid rpm.Alarge,3-litreairboxandpanel-type,wet paper filter provide reliable andquietairflow;thefilteritselfhasalifeof 16 000km.

The exhaust pipe features a larger,28,6 mm diameter bore with in-creased 3-litre multi-section mufflervolume,allowingastrongpowerout-put inthemidandupperrpmranges.The muffler itself uses a dual-layerprotector, featuring an inner metalcover that contains heat and a resinouter shield. Improving the efficien-cy of the catalyser has been achievedby placing it in the exhaust pipe it-self; the higher temperature triggersearlieractivationwhileanelongatedtapered shaped section in front of thecatalyser means spent gases strike itevenly.

All in all the MSX125’s enginepacks a perfect blend of punchy roll-on performance with useful, accessi-ble and fun all-round ability. The ef-fort put into reducing internal fric-tion and increasing intake andexhaust efficiency has also produceda highly economical unit.

Colours Available:Suiting its individuality (and that

of its owners) the MSX125 is availa-ble in four paint options:

•Asteroid Black Metallic•Pearl Himalayas White•Pearl Valentine Red•Candy Pisces Blue* All colours now have colour

matched tail section and headlightside cover as well as gold wheels,swing arm pivot bolt and front cali-pers.

The Honda MSX125 is sold stan-dard with:

•Complimentary Rider Trainingcourse through the Honda Academy

•12 Months Free Roadside Assist-ance

•24 Month unlimited km warranty

Suzuki Swift bereik steedsnuwemylpaleQUICKPIC

Suzuki se gewilde Swift-luikrug-motorbereiksteedsnuwemylpa-le, nie net internasionaal nie,maarookopplaaslikebodem.DieSwift, wat oorspronklik in 2004as ’n wêreldmotor bekend gestelis, het sedertdien altesaam 4mil-joen verkope wêreldwyd aange-teken – presies nege jaar en negemaande na die oorspronklike be-kendstelling.

JeepCherokee Longitude:ooswes, tuisbesHANS HEESE

Jare gelede was daar ’n volblad-advertensie in die nuustydskrifTime met ’n foto van ’n Jeep ty-dens die Tweede Wêreldoorlogaaneenofanderbloeddorstigege-vegsfront. Die enigste byskrifwas “Original Sin”. Wat die Jeepmet sonde te doengehadhet,weetek tot vandag toe nog nie. Maardie prentjie van die Jeep in diemiddel van ’nharde geveg, salmyaltyd bybly.

Wat wel waar is, is dat die Jeep dieVSA gehelp het om die oorlog te wenen dat alle ligte 4X4 voertuie op diemark eintlik maar afstammelingevan hierdie moeder van alle “son-des” was! Dit geld dan ook vir die mo-derne makers van alle luukse 4X4s.

As sesjarige seun het ek die eerstekeer op Oom Danie de Wet se plaasby Caledon ervaar hoe sy Jeep in re-enweer teen ’n damwal kon uitklimen het op die plek ’n Jeep-bekeerlinggeword. As student is ek en mymaats in die middel sestigs na dieGoodwood Skou met die uitsluitlikedoel om die nuwe Jeep Wagoneer tegaan aanskou; die eerste 4X4 watsoos ’n stasiewa gelyk het en soos ’nmotor hanteer het. Dit is eers jaredaarna wat die Engelse en die resmet soortgelyke voertuie voor diedag sou kom.

Terug na die nuwe Jeep Cherokeemet die snaakserige naam Longitu-de, oftewel lengtegraad in Afri-kaans. Het die name nou begin op-raak, of het dit te doen met die Oos-Wes debat waar Japannese 4X4bakkies daagliks op CNN te siene is?

Die Longitude is die intreemodelin die nuwe Cherokee-reeks wat on-

langs bekendgestel is. Anders as dieres van die reeks, wat almal dieself-de moderne en byderwetse bakvormdeel, is die Longitude met voorwiel-aandrywing toegerus en is die enjindie 2.4l Tigershark MultiAir I-4 een-heid wat ’n baie skaflike 130 kW ont-wikkel en 229 Nm wringkrag lewer.Vir gewone en alledaagse gebruik ishierdie krag beslis meer as genoeg;om die waarheid te sê, amper te veel.Met die wegtrekslag het ’n mens diegevoel gekry dat jy te doen het met’n senuweeagtige renperd wat netwil hol! Maar hierdie verskynselkan ook verband hou met die nuweoutomatiese ratkas met sy nie min-der as nege ratverhoudings nie. Ditkos versigtig petrol trap om nie diewiele te laat tol nie.

Aan die binnekant is daar alleswat daar verwag word van ’n luuksesedanmotor wat gerief betref en spa-sie en sitplekke is ontwerp vir grootAmerikaners. Die ekstras sluit din-ge soos ’n 7-duim navigasieskerm ge-koppel aan ’n klank- en vermaaklik-heidsentrum met USB-poorte en diemoontlikheid om mondelinge beve-le aan die sentrum oor te dra; alleswat in Japan uitgevind is, is teen-woordig. Natuurlik ook die veilig-heidstoerusting uit Europa soos diesewe lugsakke wat gekoppel is aansensors wat vooruit ’n moontlikebotsing of omrol-aksie kan voorspel.Hierdie is eienskappe wat moontlikspruit uit die alliansie tussen Daim-ler-Benz en Chrysler van so ’n paarjaar gelede. Dit is dan ook nie ’n won-der dat die Cherokee in 2013 diehoogste punte in sy klas in die Euro-pese botsingstoetse behaal het nie.

Van buite lyk die Cherokee pureperd op sy 17 duim allooiwielvel-lings en maak hulle die oop ruimtes

om die nisse mooi vol. Daar is ookdie geheelbeeld dat hierdie voertuignog steeds die oorwin-alles voor-koms het; iets wat by sommige mede-dingers ontbreek. Dieselfde geld na-tuurlik ook vir die Wrangler-model-le wat nog altyd sy klassieke lyne uitdie Tweede Wêreldoorlog behou heten lyk soos ’n ware 4X4 behoort telyk. Noem dit retro-stilering of ietsanders, maar dit werk vir ons wareentoesiaste wat nie modebehep isnie en waar funksionaliteit eerstekom. En natuurlik die gepatenteer-de aantal balkies op die neus wat dieverkoeler beskerm.

Prakties is natuurlik die parkeer-sensors agter om die relatief grootvoertuig in ’n klein parkeerspasie inte kry; senior burgers sal veral hier-die geriefie waardeer! So ook diedubbele stelsel klimaatbeheer watnatuurlik veel meer behels as blotelugversorging.

En wat kos hierdie Amerikaanseikoon? Die eienaar sal R479 990 min-der in sy sak hê as hy hom van dievloer aftrek. As die krag en ekstratoerusting miskien nie op standaardis nie, is daar natuurlik ’n lang lysvan toerusting wat teen ’n ekstraprys beskikbaar is, onder andereleerbekleedsel en ’n sondak. Of diekoper kan die hardebaard Limited-en Trailhawk-modelle met vierwiel-aandrywing oorweeg, waarvan som-mige ook ewenaarslotte insluit. Dieprys vir die hardebaard Cherokee3.2 l Limited AWD is R563 990en diekoning van die reeks, die Cherokee3.2 l Trailhawk 4WD, kan joune weesvir R607 990.

Awesomenessamplified: theupdatedKiaPicantoQUICKPIC

The second-generation Kia Pi-canto has been turning headssince making its global premiereat the 2011 Geneva Motor Showand local market introduction in2011.

Completely redesigned, the newmodel – proudly featuring Kia’siconic ‘tiger nose’ grille –moved thePicanto from ‘cute’ and ‘friendly’ to‘mature’ and ‘handsome’, combin-ing sporty styling, a high quality in-terior, frugal and efficient enginesand exceptional levels of standardequipment to create a car that is,quite simply, awesome.The Picanto was born from a sim-

ple idea: an affordable car shouldmake no compromises on styling,features or technology.However, thanks to a mild exteri-

or update, the all-awesome Picantonow looks even sportier and sexier,confidently showing off the designand features that has garnered itmultiple awards in the past fouryears.And with the latest Picanto, Kia

Motors has proven that ‘affordable’

can also be ‘awesome’.Freshoff themark fol-

lowing its Europeanmarket launch in 2011,the Kia Picanto scoopeda prestigious red dot de-sign award in the Prod-uct Design category,coming out ahead ofmore than 11 000 otherentries from more than60 countries and mark-ing Kia’s fifth red dotaward in less than threeyears.A few months later,

Kia Motors scooped upan equally covetable iFproduct design awardfor thethree-doorPican-to (available exclusively in Europe)– the company’s fourth in threeyears.This award recognises design

quality alongside a number of othercriteria, including workmanship,level of innovativeness and eco-friendliness.But it’s not just about awesome

styling. Thanks to its low tailpipeemissions and the advanced manu-facturing processes used in the pro-

duction of the Kia Picanto (as wellas the Kia Rio and Optima), TÜVNord, an independent technical in-spection organisation, certified allthree models according to the ISO14040 Life Cycle Assessment (LCA).In South Africa, the Picanto took

top honours in the People’s WheelsAwards for three years in a row(2011, 2012 and 2013), has won nu-merous‘BestBuy’awardsfrommul-tiple major publications, and was

elected a finalist in the2012 WesBank / SAGMJCar of the Year competi-tion, widely consideredthemostprestigiouscom-petition on the South Af-ricanmotoring calendar.While the two-model

Picanto line-up remainsunchanged, enhance-ments to the exterior en-dows it with a sportier,sexier face thanks to a re-vised ‘tiger nose’ grilleand a restyled frontbumper.Thenewgrille is slight-

ly larger, and features asilver painted bezel sur-roundedbybevelededges

for amore expressive, three-dimen-sional visage.The ‘tiger nose’ on the range-top-

pingEXmodel also features redbor-dering toseparate thebezel fromtheblack mesh grille, emphasising itssporty appearance.The new bumper incorporates a

smaller kidney grille separatedfrom the lower air intake, which isnow narrower and positioned low-er. The fog lamps are larger, as are

the integrated fog lamp housings.The Picanto’s strongly-sculpted,

dynamic side profile and unclut-tered rear styling remains un-changed. The 1.0 LX ships with 14-inch steel wheels with full wheelcovers, while the 1.2 EX featuressporty 14-inch alloys.Two of Kia Motor Corporation’s

efficient Kappa engines do duty inthe all-awesome Picanto, startingwith three-cylinder, 998 cc unit pro-ducing 51 kW and 94 Nm of torquein the 1.0LX.A four-cylinder, 1248ccengine is utilised in the range-top-ping 1.2 EX, producing 65 kW and120 Nm of torque.Both engines are mated to a five-

speed manual transmission, but afour-speed automatic transmissionis available as an option.The Picanto 1.0 LX retails for

R130 995* (R142995* for theautomat-ic version), and the range-topping1.2EXforR140 995*(R152995* fortheautomatic version).All derivatives ship as standard

witha five-year/100000 kmwarran-ty. A two-year/ 45 000 km optionalservice plan is also available. Formore information, visitwww.kia.co.za.

MOOI GESNOEI, MAAR WAAR’S DIE PERMIT?: Op Donder­dag 4 September, het dié hoop afgesnyde melkhoutboom­takke inVan Blommensteinstraat langs Onrus­karavaanpark gelê – en dit inNasionale Boomplantweek! Volgens Bevan Pope van die Onrus Be­lastingbetalersvereniging het hy aangedring op ’n permit wat jy injou besit moet hê om melkhoutbome te mag snoei. “Toe ek die per­soon wat die bome gesnoei het, vra of hy ’n permit het, het hyaan my genoem dat hy dit in opdrag van Overstrand­munisipaliteitgedoen het. Hy het ook aan my verduidelik dat dit nodig was omdie voetpad skoon te maak. Dit is wel baie professioneel gesnoei,maar sover my kennis strek moet jy in besit van ’n permit wees omdit te kan doen.” Volgens Roderick Williams, direkteur van gemeen­skapsdienste by Overstrand­munisipaliteit, is deel van die “skoon­maak­kontrakteur” se pligte om bome, struike, plante, ens. wat oorsypaadjies of oor paaie groei, te snoei. “Waar bome verhinder datvoertuie, insluitende vragmotors, in hul bane kan beweeg, moet hydie terugsnoei van sulke bome doen, selfs al is dit melkhoutbome.As dit ’n gevaar of risiko vir motoriste inhou, mag daar vir diédoel gesnoei word.” FOTO: JAN­HENDRIK COETZER
