Jaarliks vind die SA Kampioenskap vir Uitvoerende Kunste plaas in Rustenburg. Vir ‘n week lank word straf mee geding in sang, drama, dans, modelwerk en instrumentele opvoerings. Die eindelike doelwit, ‘n medalje en om die SA span te haal. Die SA span neem jaarliks deel aan die wêreldkampioenskap wat in die VSA, Los Angeles, plaasvind. Die kampioenskap kan vergelyk word met ‘n SA kampioenskap in bv. atletiek. Pageant Academy het 5 modelle inge-skryf. Eienaar, Zee Dyson, het soos verlede jaar ook deel geneem aan sang. Zee het vir ses sang style ingeskryf. Sy het deelgeneem in Gospel, Rock, Pop en Country style, waar sy 1ste en 2de plek behaal het. Wat haar modelle betref: Christelle Vermaak het fantasties presteer. Sy het aan 4 kategorieë deel geneem. Fotogenies, informeel – Goue medalje, Formeel – Goue medalje en Swemdrag – silwer medalje. Christelle se borrellende vertoning was deurslaggewend. Sy vertrek definitief na VSA, Los Angeles om aan die wêreld kampioenskap deel te neem . Sy is deur ‘n beoordeelaar uitgewys as die mees fotogeniese deelnemer van die inskrywings in all ouderdomsgroepe. Nicola Habeck het harte gesteel by vanjaar uitmuntende aanleg as model het sy met nog ‘n talent na vore getree. Sy is ook ‘n puik sangeres. Sy het sang items gelewer wat die beoordeelaars en gehoor na hul asems laat snak het. Sy het vir modelwerk en sang die volgende gewen: Sang: - Broadway Goud Pop Silwer Rock Silwer Gospel Silwer Wordmusic Silwer Modelwerk: Fotogenies Brons Formeel Brons Informeel Silwer Swemdrag Silwer
In sang het Nicola deelgeneem aan ouderdomkategorie 5-7 jaar, maar was ook aangewys as algehele wenner 5- 10 jaar. Hiervoor het sy ‘n spesiale toekenning ontvang. Nicola is die jongste uitvoerproduk van die Brian Kenneth sangskool. Sy vertrek ook na die VSA op 2 Augustus vanjaar. Op 24 April is sy ook in Gauteng aangewys as “Miss Thumbelina”. Marilyn Ramos het die beoordelaars beïndruk met haar ongelooflike elegansie en grasie op die loopplank. SA kampioenskap Direkteur Ellen Roux, het soos volg gemeld: “Sy’s net 13 en haar sagte, innemende persoonlikheid, selfvertroue en elegansie weerspieël op die looplank. Dit plaas haar in ’n ander kategorie. Dieselfde kategorie as voormalige Mej. SA titeldraers. Sy word gemerk en troon uit in haar ouderdomsgroep. “Marilyn word geken as ‘n leier en nie ‘n volgeling nie.” Dit is nog nie seker of sy na die VSA sal gaan nie. 688 Provinsiale deelnemers het vanjaar aan die SA’s deel geneeem. Dit was ook die sewende jaar wat die kampioenskap geplaasvind het. Die kompetisie is straf, maar dis ‘n wonderlike geleentheid en leerskool. Zee moedig almal aan om volgende jaar in te skryf.
Die bekende spreker, Pierre Spies, het onlangs ‘n baie suksesvolle seminaar in die dorp aangebied. Die onderwerp van die seminar was “persoonlike groei en visie.” Uit ervaring is gevind dat persone wie die seminare bywoon en die beginsels toepas, ‘n positiewe ervaring beleef met hul kinders, eggenoot, werkgewers en werknemers. Die seminaar is op Woensdag 5 Mei in die Burgersentrum aangebied en is moontlik gemaak deur die Klerksdorp Sakekamer. Volgens die talle mense wat die seminaar bygewoon het, was dit ‘n reuse sukses.
Hospice Week was celebrated across the country from the first till the eighth of May. The program for the week kicked-off with their annual Fete that was held at the Hospice House, followed with a ballet performance by the Ballet Theater Afrikan on Wednesday the fifth of May. But the highlight surely must have been the “Walking in Grandmother’s shoes”. That was the theme for their fun walk on Saturday at Pick ‘n Pay Hypermarket. “The purpose was to recognize the role ‘grannies’ play in ‘bringing up’ their grandchildren whose parents have passed away” says Joan from the Hospice team. Pick ‘n Pay sponsored a computer for the school who had the most entrants. Alabama Primary School was overwhelmed to receive their new computer. Support your local Hospice, for any information or donations contact Charleen on (018) 462 3916 / 082 200 4171.
Do you plod through the day at the office? Are you so tired by the afternoon that exercise is the last thing on your mind? Do you flop into bed at night and roll out of it exhausted in the morning? Your problem might simply be that you have low energy levels, and if so, there are quick and easy natural remedies to give you the boost you need.
Low-energy days are one part genetics, two parts diet and three parts stress. Stress is clearly the main culprit. If, for example, you are stuck in a traffic jam on your way to work and you let negative thoughts and road rage raise your stress level, your body will release enough adrenalin and insulin to keep you running flat out for over a kilometre.
If this energy is left unused, the adrenalin will continue coursing through your veins, diverting energy away from vital bodily functions. This will leave you feeling tired and even slightly depressed for the rest of the day. Instant energy boosters

Friendly greetings to all our health-minded readers. This time we take a look at what we can do to better fend off all the nasty bugs many of us are prone to fall victim to at this time of the year.
Eating habits play a major role in establishing and maintaining a healthy immune system. Eat lots of fresh, raw plant-based dishes. As a rule of thumb fruits cleanse the body and veggies build up the body. It’s important to include as mush variety as possible. This gives us the added benefit of taking in as much as possible of the protective phytonutrients. Remember lots of different colours of plant foods give us life-giving enzymes, carotenoids and bio-available vitamins and minerals. Dark green veggies are essential for protecting against a host of disease.
Avoid eating too much processed, refined foods and cooked foods where at all possible. As an example, a can of commonly consumed fixxy, sugared soft drink contains enough sugar to shut an adult immune system down for as long as eight hours. That’s a third of the day, so avoid cane sugar, white flour, fast foods, fried foods, etc.
Keep your body’s ph correct by eating alkaline-forming foods. A body in an acid-crisis is more susceptible to disease. Eat as mentioned above and add in extra avocados, millet, almonds and big, raw salads to help curb acidity naturally. Supplemental Base Powder or Calcium and Magnesium are also beneficial and help keep acidity at bay.
Pro-biotics, also known as friendly flora or friendly bacteria, stimulate the immune system and protect the body against harmful bacteria and yeasts like Candida albicans. Choose a pro-biotic containing Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Bifida Longum.
Essential fatty acids are also very important at maintaining a healthy immune system. Supplemental flax seed oil containing omega 3, 6 and 9 is a good source.
Antioxidants like pycnogenol (pine bark extract), grape seed extract, propolis, Cili Bao fruit crystals, selenium, Vitamin A, C, E and Zinc are all great to supplement with as they are powerful free radical scavengers and immune enhancers.
Marvelous as it is, the immune system can work as it should only if it is cared for properly. This means getting all the right nutrients and providing the right environment plus avoiding those things that tend to depress immunity. Environmental factors that compromise our immune system’s defense abilities include the following:
It’s been great to share with you again and we trust this information will help us all as we continue on life’s journey in the healthiest way possible. Yours for “Quality Health the Fun Way”.
Op Saterdag 1 Mei het al wat 4x4 leef en beef opgetrek na ELAND SAFARI LODGE vir die Schoonies jaarlikse 4x4 Fees. Al wat motorvervaardiger is, was verteenwoordig as borge van verskeie hindernisse. Selfs Volkswagen se nuutste toetrede in die groeiende 4x4 mark die TOUAREG was op demonstrasie en het nie ‘n tree terug gestaan vir die harde baarde nie. Deelnemers moes met ‘n houer water op die 4x4 voertuig vasgeplak die hindernisse voltooi of te wel klouter en grou en so veel water moontlik by die beheerpunte uitbring. Manne en vroue het hierdie uitdagings met ywer aangepak en hulle omtrent letterlik gate uit geniet. Hanlie Lombaard het die skare vermaak met haar sang terwyl daar ‘n tydjie was tussen voertuie. Van kos en drank was daar te kies en te keur. Inderdaad ‘n heerlike manier om die somer te kon vaarwel roep en die jagseisoen dag te sê, want hierdie roete wat die voertuie moes voltooi kronkel deur die Eland Safari wildkamp. Nadat die deelnemers beloon is met pryse, het die orkes van 3D die mense laat skoffel tot laat. Daarna het die heerlike wildsbok en skaap op die spit uiteindelik die honger pyne gestil. Daarna het die orkes weer laat geskoffel tot vroegdag toe. ‘n Video van die dag se gebeure is aanmekaar gesit, tot met ‘n vliegtuig uit die lig geneem. Hierdie video’s sal binnekort beskikbaar wees.

Host a Cuppa for CANSA event and drink to the benefits of nature’s beverage.
Drinking tea may be healthier than you think. Research in the USA points to tea being a healthier beverage than previously thought, making it the perfect partner for CANSA’s annual “Cauppa for CANSA” campaign, which raises funds and crates awareness of healthy living.
“Studies show that tea contains plant polyphenols that are similar and in some cases identical to fruits and vegetables that we know are health promoting” says Joel Perry, Health Programmes Director for CANSA.
Perry adds that scientists are just beginning to understand antioxidants and other nutrients present not only in green and black tea but also in Rooibos tea.
Results of research conducted by various bodies around the world have revealed how antioxidants neutralize harmful oxygen molecules (free radicals) responsible for damaging cells and causing tumors and heart disease.
At the Second International Scientific Symposium on Tea and Human health, Prof Jushi Ghen from the Chinses Academy of Preventive Medicine, reported that green and black tea had strongly positive anti-cancer effect when administered over six months to patients with pre-cancerous mouth lesions.
Similarly tests done at the Indiana University School of Medicine found definite positive antioxidant activity in lung cancer patients who consumed green and black tea, while yet another study established that consumption of green and black tea could even retard the development of lung cancer in organisms exposed to tobacco carcinogens.
Here in South Africa, the Medical Research Council of South Africa is researching the effects of South Africa’s indigenous Rooibos an Honeybush teas in relation to decreasing the cancer-causing effects of environmental carcinogens.
So, now with tea looking to be more friend than foe, what better way to celebrate than to register and host a tea party for CANSA’s “Cuppa for CANSA”
This year popular annual event is being co-sponsored by Dilmah Tea and Shoprite Checkers with all proceeds going toward CANSA’s new smart way of thinking: that prevention is better than cure and that healthy living can help prevent cancer.
As a registered host. CANSA will provide you with posters, leaflet, and collection envelope and guest registration from. By inviting your guest and asking those to make a small donation for their favorite beverage you will be making a meaningful contribution to CANSA and its invaluable work in promoting health in South Africa.
Cuppa for CANSA sponsor Dilmah Tea is giving away an exquisite Noritake Tea Set worth R3 000! To win this wonderful prize all you have to doe is to register to host your own ‘Cuppa’ get-together and sign up as many other Cuppa for CANSA host as possible. The host who successfully recruits the most additional hosts will win the Noritake Tea Set!

The Haunted Mansion The Haunted Mansion comes alive like never before with incredible visual and special effects in this all-new, fun- filled comedy adventure. Shrouded in fog and mystery, the mansion was once a stately antebellum palace that hosted New Orleans’ wealthiest. Now it’s the creepy and crumbling home to a love struck 19th century gentleman, 999 ghosts, and a hilarious and hair-raising battle for “home rule.” Realtor Jim Evers and his wife and business partner Sara get a call late one night from mansion owner Edward Gracey, who is looking to sell his property. Smelling the biggest deal of their career, Jim, Sara and their two children pay a visit to the mansion, located on a remote bayou. A torrential thunderstorm of mysterious origin strands the Evers family in the old mansion with the brooding, eccentric Gracey, his mysterious butler Ramsley, and a variety of residents both seen and unseen. At first, Jim scoffs at Gracey’s stories about ghosts and hauntings, until he unearths the mystery of the mansion and finds that his wife Sara has unexpected connections to its haunted past.

hello
What else could you have done? You keep turning the experience over in your mind. You are rethinking your actions and responses, which leads to questioning and doubting yourself. Instead of making yourself crazy, why not ask and honestly answer this one simple question, “What else could I have done?” Then take it one step further by asking, “If you could have done it, why didn’t you do it?” Could you have been more considerate? Compassionate? Understanding? Probably. Could you have been more patient? More tolerant? More cautious? Well, what do you think? Could have said more or less? Could have listened a bit closer? Could have planned better? Waited longer?
Of course you could have, but you didn’t. When you feel sufficiently remorseful, overwhelming confused and totally beaten down, you WILL be on the brink of a divine revelation! You will be face to face with something you have never considered. Something too simple! Too easy! The truth is, if you could have done it, you would have!
The fact that you didn’t means you couldn’t for reasons you may or may not be aware right now. Second-guessing yesterday will not help you today. Holding yourself hostage to what was not, will not propel you into what will be. As you accept the reality of what you did not do in the past, you open yourself to the luxury of knowing it does not mean you will not do better in the future. Until today you may have held yourself hostage with remorse over what you could have done.
In fact you may be pushing yourself to a point of remorseful no return. Just for today, realize you did all you could have done. Take note of what you saw, heard, felt and experienced. Use those notes as preparation to do better at some later date.
The last time we saw a BMW 6 Series was in the late 80s and that car became a motoring icon. Now, almost two decades later, the all-new 6 Series - in coupé and cabriolet guise - is set to become a new cult car. Engineering Under the bonnet of the 645 Ci is a responsive 4.4-litre eight-cylinder. Equipped with the innovative Valvetronic valve control system this unit produces 245 kW at 6 100 r/min and torque is a useful 450 Nm at 3 600 r/min. Of course it is a fast mover and it goes from 0-100km/h in 6.1 seconds (6.2 seconds for the automatic) and top speed is limited to 250km/h. There are three six-speed transmission choices: a Steptronic automatic, a sequential- manual gearbox, and a manual. The car has an aluminum chassis which helps to obtain excellent road holding while BMW’s active suspension setup, Dynamic Drive, helps to minimize body roll. Standard on the 6 Series is the Active Steering system providing optimal level of assistance depending on vehicle speed. Thanks to this system the 6 Series, which is almost five meters long and about two meters wide, is quite a maneuverable set of wheels. The car is packed with a mouthful of standard driving and safety acronyms such as ABS, ASC, DBC, EBD, DSC and CBC Interior The 645Ci convertible is a 2+2 seater. It is finished of in the softest leather and wood trim. Electrical adjustment of the driver’s and front passenger’s seats is standard, with a triple memory function on the driver’s seat. As with the 5 and 7 the controversial iDrive system is also standard. From the third quarter voice entry system will be available, enhancing the BMW’s iDrive control philosophy. This system is available in conjunction with the Professional navigation system and the Car Communication Computer (CCC) - both standard on SA-spec 6 Series convertibles. The key feature of voice entry is the option to select all essential iDrive comfort functions by voice entry while driving, without taking one’s eyes off the road even for a split-second. Driving it The 6 Series is light of foot and it feels really alive. Furthermore the car has an almost perfect 50/50 weight distribution and with all the safety features on hand this BMW offers great handling ability. Despite its cruiser image the 6 Series convertible is a driver’s car first and foremost. It offers one of the best rides in the business and gets the adrenaline pumping like few other cars. .
To ensure that the Corolla Verso caters to your every whim on the road, it comes with a 1.8 liter VVT-i engine capable of producing 95kW of power and 170Nm of torque. Optional on the SX and standard on TX models is Toyota’s MMT (Multi-mode Manual Transmission).
This gives you the option of shifting gears without clutch, or depending on your mood, letting the Corolla Verso shift gears automatically, saving you the effort and, believe it or not, the fuel. With up to 7 airbags, 3-point safety belts for all 7 passengers, vehicle stability control (depending on model) and ABS, the Corolla Verso takes Toyota’s renewed safety to a higher level. Apart from the Toyota badge, the other feature you’ll find familiar in the Verso is the standard 5-year/90 000km Toyota Care Service Plan. Versatility. The word itself can be interpreted and used in a lot of different ways, a bit like the new Toyota Corolla Verso. No measure has been spared in making this car that suits your lifestyle, whatever it may be.
So how does your lifestyle fit into the Verso? Well, start at the spacious and flexible 7 seat configuration that allows ample space for 5 adults and two children. In addition, each of the 5 seats in the 2nd and 3rd row can easily be folded down without having to remove the head straints, to create a completely fl at load area to accommodate cargo. Breaking with MPV convention with its sporty exterior styling, the Verso goes a step further with its elegant interior. Step inside and you’ll immediately be greeted by the optitron instrumentation with milky green illumination, a standard 6-speaker audio system with steering wheel controls, and depending on the model, a leather covered 3-spoke steering wheel plus an in-dash 6-CD changer, automatic climate control & park assist. So whatever your taste, you’ll find the Verso interior quite tasteful. Oranje Toyota Tel: (018) 406 5500 4 Brother Patrick Avenue, Flamwood Walk, Flamwood, Klerksdorp

The Brabus tuning program is available for the Maybach 57 and 62 and not only does it include engine tuning but also some styling changes. The tuning company’s car interior designers have give the Maybach’s cabin a leather and Alcantara touch which is complemented by colour-contrasted decorative seams. Furthermore the Brabus developers have added additional interesting features for the standard entertainment system of the Maybach.
There are 15.2-inch colour monitors integrated into the back of the front seat. These monitors also serve as computer screens. It features an 80 Gigabyte hard drive and is connected to the Internet at up to 1.5 times the speed of ISDN using a W-LAN and a fourplex GPRS router. For comfortable operation the system features a handy wireless keyboard and a wireless optical gyro mouse Externally the Brabus Maybach can be distinguished by its custom-tailored Brabus Monoblock VI light-alloy wheels.
The fully polished wheels with six double spokes fill out the wheel houses. The Brabus air suspension unit lowers the ride height of the Maybach by about 15mm without compromising its unique ride comfort. Brabus further refined the elegant lines of the Maybach with two auxiliary headlights integrated stylishly into the production front apron using two precise-fitting inserts.
Under the bonnet is a Brabus SV12 biturbo engine and displacement is increased for 5.5 tot 6.3-litres. It has a maximum power output of 471kW at 5 100r/min and a gigantic peak torque of 1&Nbsp;026Nm available from 1 750r/min. It accelerates from 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds and top speed is limited to 300km/h
Monte Carlo, Monaco The glamour venue on the Formula One calendar, the Monaco Grand Prix is an occasion for the rich and famous to strut their stuff. Totally unsuitable for the modern Formula One car – Nelson Piquet described driving there as being “ like riding a bicycle around your living room” – the classic street circuit, first used in 1929, keeps it place on the calendar by virtue of its star quality and historical significance. Overtaking is highly impossible unless the driver of the car ahead makes a mistake. But mistakes can change the course of the race, and often do. Monaco is a supreme test driving skill, rewarding those who thread their way through the unending walls of Armco with consistency and accuracy as well as speed. This was demonstrated yet again by last year’s winner Juan Pablo Montoya. Normally the “wild man” of Formula One, the Columbian showed that, when needed, he also has the skill and restraint for this mother of all street circuits, coolly holding off the challenging Kimi Räikkönen, who set up a new race lap record of 161,298 km/h (the first ever race lap of over 100 mph) during this chase. Race Distance: 78 Laps, 262,860 km Start: 14:00 South African time 2003 Winner: Juan Pablo Montoya (Williams-BMW) in a time of 1 hr 42 min 19,010 sec. 2003 Pole: Ralf Schumacher (Williams-BMW) in a time of 1 min 15,259.
Askarri het koning gekraai oor Lichtenburg in wedstryde wat op 8 Mei op Lichtenburg se tuisveld gespeel is. Wedstryde is in goeie gees gespeel en Askarri se eerste, tweede en derde spanne het oortuigende oorwinnings oor die Lichtenburgspanne behaal.
Die o.20-span was egter nie so gelukkig in sy wedstryd teen Westonaria nie. Die wedstryd is ook op 8 Mei op Westonaria se tuisveld gespeel. Alhoewel Askarri die scrums oorheers het, kon slegs Victor Phika ‘n drie druk. Die gesoute spelers van Westonaria het egter hulle ervaring gewys deur die wedstryd 43-5 te wen.
Die volgende wedstryde waaraan Askarri deelneem vind plaas op 15 Mei teen Wes Wits. Die eerste, tweede en derde spanne speel op Askarri se tuisveld. Die o.20-span speel op 22 Mei teen Rustenburg Bobbies op Askarri se tuisveld. Ondersteuners word verwelkom by hierdie wedstryd. Die o.20-span speel nie noodwendig saam met die eerste, tweede en derde spanne nie en die meeste van hul wedstryde word weg gespeel.

After the eight-hour day, dropping and fetching the kids, shopping, exercising and cooking, you deserve to retire into a beautiful bedroom. Your bedroom should be a haven of relaxation and rest, a place where body and mind are rejuvenated and prepared for the next hectic day. Here are some ways to make your slumber zone, a pleasure zone: * Piles of pillows: Cover your bed with soft, sumptuous cushions and pillows. (You can even make your own scented pillows by stuffing them with sleep-inducing lavender and geranium). * Light up your life: Get rid of harsh, overhead lighting and install soft, gentle lights and bedside lamps. * Light a candle: Position scented aromatherapy candles all around the room – lavender and chamomile induce relaxation and sleep, while ylang ylang and sandalwood will promote romance. * Flower power: Fill window boxes with herbs like lavender and chamomile that will give off their beautiful relaxing scents on hot summer nights. Position vases with freshly cut, sweet-scented roses, lilies or sweet peas. Herb posies will not only add to the bouquet of scents, but will also keep insects at bay. * Burn, baby, burn: If you’re allergic to pollen, aromatherapy burners can disperse the sensual scents of ylang ylang, sandalwood, geranium and lavender essential oils. Alternatively, you can scent a tissue with a few drops of lavender oil and put it under your pillow. Avoid lavender if you’re pregnant and bear in mind that too much ylang ylang can cause headaches and nausea. * Bring balance to your bedroom: You want maximum sun in the morning, but minimum light at night, so it’s important to balance light and shade. * If you have the money, change your curtains with the seasons: go for thick, comforting velvets or denim in winter and crisp, float voile and muslin in summer.
