Overland hosted a special day for orphans and disabled people in the KOSH area on the 19th of May at the Triest Training Centre in Klerksdorp. “Its time for Overland to help the less fortunate and brighten up their day by means of hosting a fun filled day of fun and games. After all, these people need a day to celebrate the fact that they are children and adults and that there are companies like Overland that always keeps them in mind”. Said a representative of the Overland group of companies on why they hosted the day. There were approximately 1000 children and disabled people. The day kicked off with a warm welcoming of all the guests and schools. There was a jumping castle, face painting, funny characters and a dog show presented by the dog unit from Stilfontein police. Everyone was spoiled with a T-Shirt, sweets, ice cream, a hot dog roll and Lots, lots more. Overland succeeded in making the day special for everyone with special guest Phil Masinga that gave a motivate speech to all the star struck children. Local Soccer Star Phil Masinga (photo left) gave a very positive and motivate speech to the crowed.
31 May is World No Tobacco Day and the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA) together with all stakeholders promoting a Smoke Free Society, has highlighted Tobacco and Family Health. Leading a healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce the risk of cancer. Maintaining good health requires a firm stance against smoking tobacco products and second hand smoke. Cigarettes contain over 4500 harmful chemicals and when a cigarette is lit 85% of the smoke is released into the atmosphere as side-stream smoke. This second hand smoke can affect the health of non-smokers who are continuously exposed to this unhealthy environment. Children are particular vulnerable as their immune system is still being developed. Children who breathe second hand smoke are more likely to get colds, allergies, middle ear infections and “glue ear” (the most common cause of deafness in children). Smoking and being exposed to second hand smoke while pregnant contributes to miscarriages, low birth weight and stillbirths. There is also evidence that second hand is connected to the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Joel Perry, CANSA’s Health Programmes Director urges everyone to act responsibly regarding his or her health and take bold steps to avoid exposure to second hand smoke. Object if the law is not upheld on non-smoking in public and work place. Joel appeals to all to make their homes, especially indoors a smoke free environment in the interest of your family’s health and well-being. There are an estimated 1.2 billion regular smokers in the world today. Many of these smokers do not know that tobacco causes disease, tobacco related health risk and premature death. Recent studies have shown that elderly smokers may increase their risk contracting dementia. Smoking may cause heart attacks, strokes, blood vessel disease, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, peptic ulcers and impotence. Cancer of the lungs, throat, vocal cords, mouth, tongue, oesophagus, bladder, pancreas, kidneys, stomach and cervix are also smoking related. The World Health Organization states that tobacco and poverty create a vicious circle. Money spent on tobacco products reduces money spent on human needs such as food, shelter, education and healthcare. Join CANSA and the international community to fight against the expansion of the tobacco and cigarette industry, and advertising amongst vulnerable groups in all its subtle forms. For those who smoke we say NO if’s or butts, quit smoking. It’s the smart thing to do. Take up the Stop and Win challenge this month, for more information on this competition please collect an entry form from your nearest pharmacy or enter on www.stopandwin.ngo.za Stop Line 011 720 3145. For more information on smoking or any other cancers or related conditions contact CANSA’s Toll free Information Service on 0800 22 66 22 or visit the CANSA website www.cansa.org.za On the 31st May 2004 CANSA will have smoking gangs (school children), who will be collecting funds in tins at shopping centres. This fundraising event will be for patients with lung cancer. Please support this event as CANSA and all their patients need your donations. MOIRA FOURIE FUNDRAISING AND MARKETING TEL: 082 520 8442

It’s that time of year again when many of us are plaque by the sniffles. When our immune systems have been compromised it’s good to know what to do to speed up recovery.
The value of sleep and rest cannot be overemphasized. Optimal quantities of sleep are required for the optimal function of NK Lymphocytes (natural killer cells). Persistently low levels of NK Lymphocytes are associated with lowered resistance to infectious diseases such as influenza. Garlic stimulates the ability of NK Lymphocytes to destroy antigens (like viruses and bacteria) and cancer cells by up to 160% (scientific research-humans-double blind study-Kyolic form of garlic most effective).
Consume plenty of quality liquids. Drink purified water, fresh fruit juices and vegetable juices. These help to cleanse the body of the toxic wastes that form mucous in our sinuses and lungs.
Avoid all alcohol, cigarettes, tea and coffee. Research trials have shown that a large amount of Vitamin C lessens the frequency and symptoms as well as shortens the duration of a cold. Those who supplement with Vitamin C experience an average of 34% fewer days of illness.
Zinc lozenges are great for soothing a sore throat and can be effective at reducing the duration of symptoms. A recent study by the Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics, demonstrated Echinacea’s efficacy in the treatment of colds and flu when used as soon as symptoms first appear.
Propolis, a resinous substance collected by bees, is high in bioflavanoids that posses antioxidant properties. Propolis prevents the common cold and alleviates sinusitis. This same substance has been shown to prevent influenza infection (scientific research-humans-preventative in 93% of cases.)
Beta-Carotene helps heal inflamed mucous membranes and strengthens the immune system. Beta-Carotene is high in raw carrots and sweet potatoes but is also available in capsules and tablets.
Combating stress is very important. This is often easier said than done. People under stress are much more susceptible to the common cold. Learn relaxation techniques, exercise moderately and get help if you don’t know how to cope. Hope these pointers help you to recover quicker if you find yourself with the sniffles.
Yours for “Quality Health The Fun Way!

TROY In ancient Greece, the passion of two of history’s most legendary lovers, Paris, Prince of Troy (Orlando Bloom) and Helen (Diane Kruger), Queen of Sparta, ignites a war that will devastate a civilization. When Paris steals Helen away from her husband, King Menelaus (Brendan Gleeson), it is an insult that cannot be suffered. Familial pride dictates that an affront to Menelaus is an affront to his brother Agamemnon (Brian Cox), powerful King of the Myceneans, who soon unites all the massive tribes of Greece to steal Helen back from Troy in defence of his brother’s honour. In truth, Agamemnon’s pursuit of honour is corrupted by his overwhelming greed — he needs control of Troy to ensure the supremacy of his already vast empire. The walled city, under the leadership of King Prium (Peter O’ Toole) and defended by mighty Prince Hector (Eric Bana), is a citadel that no army has been able to breach. One man alone stands as the key to victory or defeat over Troy — Achilles (Brad Pitt), believed to be the greatest warrior alive. Arrogant, rebellious and seemingly invincible, Achilles has no allegiance to anyone or anything, save his own glory. It is his insatiable hunger for eternal renown that leads him to attack the gates of Troy under Agamemnon’s banner — but it will be love that ultimately decides his fate. Two worlds will go to war for honour and power. Thousands will fall in pursuit of glory. And for love, a nation will burn to the ground.

hello
Are you so afraid of doing things wrong that you won’t do anything at all? How many times have you convinced yourself that something is right for you to do, only to allow yourself to be blown off course by someone else who says, “That’s wrong!” Is it possible that you dwell in a past of things wrong to such a degree that you now believe that anything you do will probably go wrong? If you have answered yes to one or more of these enquiries, here is another question for you. “What’s wrong with being wrong?” When you take a step in a direction that could ultimately lead you off course, wrong lets you know that you need to change direction. If you choose something or someone that is less than worthy of who you are, wrong lets you know that you need to make another choice. If you decide to take on something that you really are not prepared to handle, wrong lets you know what skills you need to build, what information you need to acquire, what things you do well and what things you cannot. When you get right down to it, wrong is life’s way of letting you know in order to get the right results for your efforts. Now what’s wrong with that? If you have a fear of being wrong, go back into your history. Allow yourself to remember the first time you were told that you were wrong. Allow yourself to hear the words, feel the feeling and remember the experience. If you can place yourself within the midst of that experience, forgive yourself for believing that there is something wrong with being wrong. Until today, you might have allowed yourself to believe that if you did something wrong you might not recover. Just for today, take a risk! Do something you fear might be wrong. You may discover that YOU were wrong.

Smiley Kids Kleuterskool het onlangs ‘n fondsinsemelingsprojek geloods, waar die fondse aangewend is om van die kinders see toe te neem. Die kinders het ‘n prêt vakansie gedured die April skoolvakansie te Glenmore Kinderstrand gehad.

Alabama Sekondêre Skool is gerat om die eerste uitgawe van ‘n splinternuwe skoolkoerant die lig te laat sien. Hierdie projek vind met die mentorskap van ‘n reklameonderneming in Klerksdorp plaas. Op 21 April 2004 is ‘n aanvangskursus by Infoworks aangebied. Agt leerders van Alabama Sekondêre Skool en twee van hul onderwysers het meer kom leer oor hoe om ‘n skoolkoerant te beplan. Daar is gekyk na verskeie aspekte soos die basiese riglyne vir die skryf van artikels, hoe om foto’s te neem, bladuitleg asook hoe om advertensies te werf om die koerant te help befonds. Die leerders moes ‘n redaksie saamstel. Daarna moes hulle op ‘n naam vir die koerant besluit, die artikels skryf en foto’s neem. Die eindproduk is beslis iets waarop hulle kan trots voel. Volgens Zanette Schenk (Departementshoof: Tale) is dié agt leerders baie opgewonde oor hul skoolkoerant. Hulle is reeds druk besig om inligting in te samel vir die eerste uitgawe en selfs die personeel kan nie wag nie. Johan Smit en sy personeel het besluit om as gemeenskapsprojek betrokke te raak by een van die skole in die Klerksdorp-omgewing en Alabama te help om ‘n skoolkoerant op die been te bring. Infoworks onderneem om op ‘n deurlopende basis in ‘n raadgewende hoedanigheid betrokke te bly by hierdie projek van Alabama.
14 AUGUSTUS 2004 OM 09:00 met JANNIE MOOLMAN & WILNA SNYMAN (MADEL VAN 7DE LAAN) Gasvrouens word benodig vir die geleentheid. Vir enige navrae kontak gerus SUSAN AGENBAG by Tel. (018)462 9887/8
It’s often said that the first thing you should buy when planning a DIY home improvement project is a first-aid kit. And while that may not discourage you from giving such projects a try, says Berry Everitt, MD of the Chas Everitt International property group, “it should make you take precautions against the dangers that are involved in such work”. Expert suggestions for avoiding the most common DIY injuries are the following:

Today we see more colour images in a day than our early ancestors saw in a lifetime. The technical advances of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries have provided us with unlimited tools for communicating visual form. Consequently, we are bombarded with images from books, magazines, newspapers, film, television, the internet and numerous other influences. All these influences have influenced our colour values and perceptions. Colour theory is part of formal aesthetic principles which have evolved over 30 000 years of Western civilization. Beginning in the Paleolithic era, cave drawings are testimony to the first organization of visual interior colour palettes. TECHNICAL ANALYSIS The technical analysis of colour begin with Sir Isaac Newton’s discovery in 1666 that sunlight contains all the colours of the rainbow. He also developed the first colour circle. Research has shown that 80% of the human brain is dedicated to processing visual information, and of that process, 60% is used for colour registration! Colour and form are two basic elements in this communication. It is said that forms affects the intellect and colour affects emotion. If an object is small, we can assume it is light. Consequently, we can easily describe form with a wide range of precise terms, such as geometric, curved, concave, convex, large, small, heavy and light. By contrast, we can’t put a colour in our hands and feel it, weigh it, smell it or taste it. Colour is purely visual “Colour is the visual effect that is caused by the spectral composition of the light emitted, transmitted, or reflected by objects” (Jill Morton, Color Voodoo #Color Logic) In brief we can say that colour is that which is seen as colour. When we experience that the surface has a certain colour, this is the result of a complicated chain of factors where our visual sense is a necessary ultimate link. How often to who hear that we live in a grey world, well it is true, there is no colour on the objects we see, colour is formed in the brain by means of light reflected from objects. Colour is light and light changes colour. Colour originates in light. Sunlight as we perceive it is colourless. In reality, a rainbow is testimony to the fact that all colours are present in white light.

The new Renault Modus and the Clio will sit side-by-side complimenting each other and both targeting small car buyers According to Renault its design and interior style have produced a “Friendly, comfortable, efficient cabin”. It is well-proportioned and very bright thanks to its sunroof. In addition to the panoramic, electrically-operated sunroof inspired by the Mégane II, Modus also comes in a version which offers an original, fun manual control for opening and closing the two sunroofs. The new Modus offers some of the space efficiency of an MPV, but on a smaller scale. Its sliding two- or three-way split-folding rear bench, unique “boot chute” rear tailgate and specially designed bike rack make it a versatile vehicle. It comes with many comfort features, some of which are borrowed from higher-segment models and Renault paid special attention to its ergonomics. The driving position combines the advantages of a hatch with those of an MPV. With its centrally positioned dashboard that can be viewed by all its occupants, Modus makes for a great driving experience. The Modus shares its suspension with that of the Mégane II. Petrol engines comprise three 16-valve units: 1.2 16V, 1.4 16V, and 1.6 16V. The chassis and body shell of the Modus yield levels of drive ability and Renault says there is no compromise on safety. It is the first Renault to be produced from the Alliance platform B, jointly developed by the Renault-Nissan Alliance. With its generously dimensioned braking system, the Modus offers class-leading levels of active safety. It benefits from a Bosch 8.0 ABS-EBD, new-generation ESP with understeer control and a tyre pressure monitoring system. The Modus is also available with many active and passive safety features, which include additional cornering lights, double-distance xenon headlamps, together with an automatic range adjustment system. Renault says the Modus lightens the load for its users with longer service intervals of up to 18 000 or every two years.
Volkswagen has come swooping in with its long-awaited Renault Scenic and Toyota Verso basher, the five or seven-seater. Touran - and the big news is that it’s available only with diesel power - for the moment. What’s more, there are no fewer than TWO diesels available - the trusty 74 kW 1.9-litre turbo-diesel as found in the VW Polo 1.9 TDi, and the latest 100 kW double overhead camshaft 2-litre unit as fitted in the Audi A3 2.0 TDI. The Touran 1.9 comes in Trend line trim, which means it gets different 16 inch alloy wheels to those on the 2.0 Highline version, as well as two-tone interior trim, electric window lifts on the front doors only, different cloth trim, standard front seats, black trim on the door handles and roof rails, and rear fog-lights. All versions get “Climatic” semiautomatic air conditioning plus an RCD 300 radio with front-loader CD player. Driver and passenger has front airbags with passenger side deactivation (for use when fitting a child seat), front side airbags, a curtain airbag for front and second row occupants, ABS brakes with electronic brake distribution, ESP electronic stability programme (with ASR anti-skid control), plus Brake Assist and an electronic diff. lock. There’s also variable speed power assisted steering, remote central locking, an on-board trip computer, cruise control, a removable luggage cover, net partition, height and reach adjustable steering, a centre console box, and manual headlight height adjustment. The Touran can come in either five-seat or seven-seat configuration. The former means there’s a lot more luggage space in the back with the seats up - VW claims 695 liters compared to only 121 liters in the seven-seater. The second row of seats can be taken out (they weigh around 16 kg a piece) to give a wide variety of seating and load options, while the third row (on the seven seater) folds away under the floor level. The second row seats can also be individually folded, moved sideways or shifted backwards to re-arrange the seating configuration to suit needs. The centre seat can even be used as a small table by folding it forward. In typical Volkswagen fashion the Touran is a well- finished, well thought-out product. Its frontal styling is aggressive and modern.
Grand Prix of Europe Nürburgiring, Eifel, Germany Once a title that altered between the national grandes épreuves in Europe, and later an event in its own right held at different circuits around the Continent, the European Grand Prix has found a permanent home at Nürburgring in recent years. Perhaps because of comparisons with the nearby Nordschleife (the twisty, 30km track that hosted the German GP for decades), the ultra modern new Nürburgring was seen as rather clinical by members of the grand prix circuit when they first raced there in 1984. Reinstated on the calendar to host first the Luxembourg and then the European Grand Prix, the circuit has surprised the younger generation of grand prix drivers with its challenging character and above average number of overtaking points. Though criticized by some for being “Mickey Mouse”, a loop immediately after the start-finish straight introduced two years ago has resulted in a variety of different lines and some exciting incidents. Race distance: 60 laps, 308,743km Start: 14:00 Date: 30 May 2003 winner: Ralf Schumacher (Williams-BMW), 1hr 34 min 43,622 sec 2003 Pole: Kimi Räkkönen (McLaren-Mercedes), 1min 31,523 sec

Kia has joined the mini-car fray with its new Picanto - and pricing is very competitive, dramatically under-cutting its natural Korean opposition while still offering acceptable trim and safety levels. A five-door hatch with European styling, it is neat and attractive while offering compact dimensions for parking coupled with good use of available interior space. From the side there's more than a touch of the new Citroen C2 in the way the windows are staggered, while the front sees a strong grille treatment flanked by large headlamps and underscored by big black bumpers. The engine package comprises a 1 086 cm3 SOHC unit that pushes out 47 kW at 5 500 r/min and 99 Nm of torque at 3 000 r/min. Kia says it'll take you 15.2 seconds to reach 100km/h from rest in the Picanto, while top speed is 155km/h. The car comes well-equipped in its price bracket, with a modern interior that boasts soft-touch plastics on the dashboard and door trim, together with bright and modern materials. There's enough space for four adults, with rear seat space sufficient provided the driver isn't too tall. However, luggage capacity with the seats up is limited to only 157 litres, although folding and flopping the seats forward (40/60 split) can increase this to 882 litres. The Picanto comes standard with a driver's side airbag, together with dual side impact beams in the doors, as well as a built-in battery saver, height adjustable head lights, impact resistant (up to 4km/h) bumpers, rear window demister, rear fog lights, and remote keyless entry and immobilizer using a transponder key, plus a burglar alarm. There are also Isofix child seat anchors and child locks in the back doors. There's also no spare wheel - a kit with puncture fix liquid and a compressor is supplied instead - but those who prefer the security of their own full-size spare can order one for an extra R875, complete with jack and wheel spanner! The Picanto has 14 inch steel wheels with full-size wheel covers, and the suspension set up includes front McPherson struts and rear torsion beam axle with anti-roll bars. There are 241mm ventilated front disc brakes and 234 mm drums at the rear. Instrumentation is restricted to a large speedo and a fuel gauge, while water temperature is indicated by different coloured lights - blue for cold, green for normal, red for too hot! Circular dial-type ventilation controls are easy to operate. The driver's seat is six-way adjustable, while the rear seat backrest has three different slant options to increase either load space or comfort levels. In the dashboard are two storage trays below the steering wheel on the driver's door side as well as a two-level glove box. Picanto service intervals are pegged at 15 000 km and there's a 3 year/100 000 km warranty with a 3 year unlimited km roadside assistance plan.
