Liggies trek groot skare
Lise Beyers VYFTIEN huisgesinne is Sondagmiddag dakloos gelaat nadat 'n woonstelgebou in Huguenot in ligte laaie opgegaan het. Die brand het omstreeks 16:00 uitgebreek in die dak van die Katz-woonstelle in Klein Drakensteinweg. Chaos het hierna geheers soos die brand vinnig deur die dak versprei het, op 'n tyd wat talle inwoners gerus het om van die hitte van die dag te ontsnap. 'n Inwoner, Mark Simonse, het ges� dat alles baie rustig was die middag, totdat hy rook geruik het. "Als het so vinnig gebeur. Eers het ek rook geruik en daarna het rook vanuit die dak begin borrel. Ek het dadelik my familie vanuit die woonstel ontruim. Kort hierna het vlamme vanuit die dak gelek. Ek het bure wakker geklop en het 'n deur stukkend geskop om 'n buurman na veiligheid te bring." Shane Gardiner, wat daardie tyd verby die woonstelgebou gery het, het op daardie stadium 'n bietjie rook vanuit die dak sien borrel en het dadelik die brandweer gebel. Toe die brandweer binne enkele minute hierna op die toneel kom, was die brand in die dak van die woonstel buite beheer.

Drie woonstelle aan die voorkant van die gebou het ten volle uitgebrand. Verskeie inwoners het daarin geslaag om van hul goedere te red, maar vele ander het alles verloor. Een hiervan is 'n administratiewe beampte van die polisie, Amore September. "Ek het 11 jaar gelukkig hier gewoon, nou is alles verwoes." Toe die brand onder beheer gebring is, moes brandweerbeamptes nog tot 22:00 die situasie monitor om te sorg dat die gebou nie weer vlam vat nie. Die operasionele hoof van Drakenstein brandweer, Dereck Peceur, het bevestig dat die brand in die dak van die gebou ontstaan het, maar hy het ges� dat slegs 'n forensiese ondersoek die presiese oorsaak van die brand sal kan vasstel. "Die brand het vinnig deur die dak verspreiomdatdaargeenbrand-murewasnie. Daar was wel brandblussers teen die mure en inwoners het hiervan gebruik gemaak om die brand te probeer blus." Hierdie woonstelle is gele� bokant die bekende vrugtehandelaar, Boeties. Die eienaar, Achmat Khan, het ges� dat sy winkel geweldige waterskade opgedoen het en dat duisende rande se voorraad beskadig is.
Bo en behalwe dit, s� hy dat elke dag wat sy besigheid se deure gesluit bly, ly hy 'n grootfinansi�leverlies."Ekweetniehoeons hier gaan deurkom nie." Peceur het ges� dat dit onseker is wanneer die winkels onder die woonstelle heropen sal kan word. "Die forensiese ondersoek moet eers afgehandel word en die veiligheid van die gebou sal bepaal moet word." Na beraming sal dit maande neem voordat die woonstelle herstel is, weens die omvang van die skade. In hierdie tydperk sal daar nie hi�r intrek geneem kan word nie. Omdat alle munisipale noodbehuising tans vol is, het die gestrande inwoners alternatiewe blyplek by familie gekry. Kospakkies is Sondag en Maandag aan hulle uitgedeel. Mense wat 'n bydrae wil gee om die slagoffers wat alles verloor het te help, kan onderburgemeester Conrad Poole kontak op 021 807 4761 of ConradPoole@drakenstein.gov.za of Winnefred Solomons op 021 807 4529 of Winnefred.Solomons@drakenstein.gov.za. * Fifteen families have been left without a roof over their heads, after a fire swept through a block of flats in Paarl East.

) Dit was weer chaos tydens die Liggiesfees in die Paarl. Die vullis wat agtergelaat is, was skokkend. Mense het oop en bloot hul rommel soos koeldrankbottels en pizza-bokse in die straat neergegooi wanneer hulle klaar ge�et en gedrink het. Maar 'n pluimpie gaan aan munisipale werkers wat hierna die strate weer silwerskoon gemaak het, sodat dit die volgende aand bemors kon word. ) Dit was 'n groot oomblik toe Drakenstein Munisipaliteit aan boord geklim het met plaaslike krieket. Hulle het 'n trofee geskenk vir die klubs se Jive Twintig/20-kompetisie. Dalk moet hulle volgende jaar water lei, want die spelers duik dat die stof staan op die Parys-velde, een van die mooiste velde in die Boland.

Women escape car-jacking
A LOCAL businesswoman had a close call on Friday afternoon, when she and a colleague were almost car-jacked in the heart of Paarl. The incident took place still in broad daylight at 18:00. The owner and a shop assistant of a business in the Sanlam building in Main Street had locked up the shop and proceeded across the road to the parking area between Pastorie Avenue and Main Street. The shop owner, who for safety reasons would like to remain anonymous, recalls the terrifying events of the afternoon: "We approached her car in the parking area. My colleague put her bag in the back seat. As she was about to get into the car a person attempted to get in the back. "My colleague shouted at him to get away from the car, but he pulled a gun on her. "I did not really know what was happening and somehow, with the gun pointed at her, mycolleagueclimbedintothecarandshouted at me to get in and lock the doors." She said that they then found themselves locked in the vehicle not knowing what to do, while the alleged car-jacker stood outside still pointing the gun at them, demanding money. The driver of a bakkie which was leaving the area noticed that something was wrong and drove towards their car. But the robber still stood pointing his gun at them. "In desperation my colleague started the engine and sped off, straight to the Paarl police station." But by the time they reached the scene of the crime, the suspect had long vanished. This incident took place in the presence of so called `car-guards' on the parking area. In the last month a bakkie has also been stolen from the same parking area. "After this terrifying experience I would like to warn the public to be exceptionally careful. There are desperatepeopleout there looking for valuables. "Also, I would like to express our thanks to the man in the bakkie who distracted our attacker, making it possible for us to flee." * The owner of a nightclub in Textile Street, Paarl, also had a close encounter when he was car-jacked early on Sunday morning. The man had locked his business at 03:00 and was on his way home on Jan van Riebeeck Drive in Huguenot in his Mercedes Benz, when he was overtaken by another vehicle whose occupants forced him to stop. Two men approached the vehicle and told him to sit in the back seat of his car. The victim was then sprayed in the face with a substance and when he gained his senses again, he found himself on the corner ofJanvanRiebeeckDriveandKleinDrakenstein Road. His car and the keys to his business were gone. No arrests have been made in both of the above cases.
Gewapende rowers slaan weer toe
GEWAPENDE rooftogte blyk nou 'n weeklikse verskynsel te wees op Wellington. Die nuutste roof het Maandagoggend plaasgevind by Rein drankwinkel in Blignautstraat, New Rest. Hier het drie mans di� oggend die winkel binnegestap en bier gekoop, waarna hulle die perseel verlaat het. Maar kort hierna het hulle die bestuurder van die drankwinkel se afleweringsvoertuig aangekeer toe hy terugkom van 'n aflewering na die winkel. Hy is met 'n vuurwapen gedreig en die mans het bykans R9000 se kontant van hom geroof. Hulle het te voet ontsnap. In die afgelope maand het gewapende rooftogte plaasgevind by die Colibri-fabriekswinkel (ook in Blignautstraat), die Wellington DBV en 'n plaaslike privaatskool. 'n Werknemer van 'n drankwinkel op Wellington was in Oktober ook die slagoffer van 'n gewapende roof toe hy by 'n bank in die middedorp geld wou gaan deponeer het. En voor hierdie voorval was werknemers van American Swiss ook slagoffers van 'n gewapende roof. PLAT. 'n Motoris is Donderdag lig beseer toe hy beheer oor sy motor verloor het en teen ho� spoed teen 'n lamppaal gebots het in NoorderPaarl. Volgens ooggetuies het die man uitgeswaai vir 'n motor wat by Retiefstraat wou indraai. Dit was die tweede keer binne 'n week dat 'n munisipale lamppaal te pletter gery is. Verlede Saterdagaand is so 'n paal ook platgery in Hoofstraat by Langstraat. Die bestuurder van di� motor het egter weggejaag. 'n Woordvoerder van die Munisipaliteit het ges� dat in die geval dat die skuldige opgespoor kan word, word die herstelkostes terugge�is van di� persoon. Indien nie, word die kostes van hul versekering ge�is. Foto: Lise Beyers
Vrou probeer haar kinders, haarself uitwis
'n PLAASLIKE vrou het verlede week eers haar kinders probeer doodmaak, voordat sy die mes op haarself gedraai het. Di� voorval het Donderdagoggend in 'n huis in D'Olivierastraat, langs Bolandpark in Paarl-Oos, plaasgevind. Dievrou hetglohaar kinders,'n tienerdogter en -seun, bedwelm en hul polse met 'n mes gesny. Hierna het sy haar eie polse gesny, asook haar keel. Haar man van wie sy geskei is, het toevallig kort hierna by die woning aangekom om sy onderhoudsgeld aan haar te betaal, toe hy op die bebloede toneel afgekom het. Hy het sy gewese vrou en twee kinders inderhaas na Paarl Mediclinic geneem. Die vrou, wie se naam nie bekend gemaak mag word nie om haar minderjarige kind te beskerm, is volgens gerugte 'n depressielyer. Die kinders is Vrydag uit die hospitaal ontslaan maar hul ma, wat toevallig 'n verpleegster is, is in 'n ernstige toestand in die noodeenheid van die hopsitaal opgeneem. Sy is steeds in die hospitaal waar haar toestand vandeesweek as ernstig, maar bevredigend beskryf word. 'nWoordvoerdervandiepolisie,kaptLouise du Plessis, het bevestig dat twee klagtes van poging tot moord teen die vrou ondersoek word. "Die vrou kon weens die erns van haar toestand nog nie ondervra word nie. Ons wag ook vir die resultate van toksikologie-toetse om vas te stel of sy wel die kinders bedwelm het. Hulle s� dat hulle nie bewus is van enige bedwelming nie."

Kleuter uit motor verlos
'n DRIEJARIGE kleuter het verlede week byna gesterf toe hy binne 'n motor toegesluit was. Die voorval het plaasgevind naby die noordelike ingang van Paarl Mall. 'n Motorwag het opgelet dat die baba wakker geword het en met 'n bloedrooi gesig binne die toegesluite motor paniekbevange geraak het. Toe die motorwag besef het dat hy nie toegang tot die motor kon kry nie, het hy sekuriteitsbeamptes van die Mall nader geroep. Hulle kon sien dat die kind erg begin ly het weens die hitte binne-in die motor en hulle het 'n venster gebreek. Die skreeuende kind is uitgehaal en kort hierna het sy ma teruggekom. Polisiebeamptes het op die toneel aangekom en die vrou en kind is na die kantore van die Mall geneem. Die vrou het beweer dat sy slegs 'n paar minute in 'n winkel was en dat sy nie haar kind wou wakker maak nie. Die vrou is op waarskuwing vrygelaat.

Talle klagtes is reeds oorgedra vanaf woonstelbewoners in Lady Greystraat, asook die omliggende residensi�le areas van Waterkant-, Kasteel, Swartvlei-, en selfs Sinagogestraat. Nienetdreundiege-'doef-doef'klanketotvroegoggend nie, maar partytjiegangers gebruik glo Lady Greystraat as 'n renbaan. "Die afgelope naweek het die bande weer vuurwarm `gespin' in Lady Greystraat tot 05:00 in die oggend," s� een inwoner, Koos Marais. "Dit raak al hoe erger. Ons as inwoners van hierdie gebied het al 'n petisie hieroor ingedien by die munisipaliteit en samesprekinge gevoer met die polisie, maar hulle doen niks nie." Volgens Marais het die klubs in Lady Greystraat lisensies om drank tot 02:00 te verkoop, maar niks keer hulle om hul deure daarna oop te hou nie. "Daar is eenvoudig geen wetstoepassing hier nie. Dit is 'n klipgooi van mense se huise af. Ons kan dit nie meer verduur nie." Nog 'n bymekaarkomplek van partytjiegangers is die parkeerarea van die plaaslike kantore van die departement van binnelandse sake in Bergrivier Boulevard, asook die ou terrein van Fruit & Veg City langsaan. Hier raas hulle glo inwoners van die gebied wakker dwarsdeur die naweek, van Vrydagaande tot Sondagoggende. 'n Man is juis vroeg Saterdagoggend hi�r met 'n mes gesteek, nadat hy en die verdagte uit 'n plaaslike kuierplek gekom het.

Opinion � Menings
WITH just more than two weeks to go before Christmas, the frenzy of spending has started with shops stock-piled with Christmas goodies, enticing the public to part with their hard earned cash. With the financial crisis far from over, it is to be recommended that one thinks twice before emptying one's pockets on unnecessary, lavish gifts. This time of the year we should rather take a moment to remember the thousands of less fortunate people in our midst - people whose lives depend on organisations such as Hospice, the Haven homeless shelter, old age homes and children's homes, to mention just a few. Many of these organisations have very little or no government funding and depend entirely on donations from the public. And then they go that extra mile to try and bring cheer to the lives of people whose days are a constant battle for survival. The Paarl Post Christmas Fund was established to lend a helping hand to such organisations right across the Drakenstein area, to give something back to the members of the community who are in dire straits, so take a moment to think where you can cut back and help give the less fortunate something to smile about.
Is Heath objective?
JUDGE Willem Heath has been re-appointed to head the Special Investigations Unit (SIU). He is the founding head of the unit under President Mandela who stepped down after the Constitutional Court ruled that a sitting judge cannot head such a unit. Heath resigned as a judge after President Mbeki refused to grant him early retirement and eventually stepped down as the head of the SIU. There was a huge outcry when President Mbeki let him go. PresidentZumahasbroughtJudgeHeath back. One would expect that there would be ululations now that he has been brought back. Alas, there is none. There is an outcry from the same quarters that complained when he was allowed to leave. They argued then that he was a man of integrity and they complain now that he lacks the same. I did not take much notice until I read an interview of Heath with the City Press. I could not help feeling that Heath brings factional party politics into his work. He is making comparisons between the current ANC leadership and the previous one. Heath claims that the post-Polokwane leadership is far better than the previous one, whilst bitterly complaining about his treatment by the previous ANC leadershipaspresidedover byformer President Thabo Mbeki. He claims Mbeki made him a "pauper" and caused him to start his life "from scratch". Reading the interview one can not miss the bitterness that oozes from the former judge. In the entire interview Heath comes up as a factionalist who wants to protect everything about the ANC President and has a grudge against those who might disagree with him. It is not his place as a head of the Special Investigations Unit. He can just join an ANC branch and pursue that line of thinking within it. Of all state employees who were accused of being factional and used their position to pursue such interests, none has ever verbalised it like Willem Heath did. Isn't he supposed to be impartial? The SIU head's masterpiece was when he was responding to a question about why only Schabir Shaik and Tony Yengeni were prosecuted for the arms deal. His response was: "They were sacrificed. It was easy to sacrifice them. And then, of course, Mbeki initiated Zuma's prosecution � not only as far as the corruption charges were concerned, but also on the rape case." Heath was asked whether he had proof for this and responded that Mbeki "dictated to the NPA what decisions they had to take. I can't disclose the evidence to you, but generally there was no doubt he had a strong say in those decisions; yet the NPA was supposed to be completely independent." The journalist probed further and asked whether the rape case was a set-up. The man who will lead the Special Investigations Unit responded that it was indeed a set-up. What the above comments actually do is to allege that a president broke the law whilst in office. They also allege that the National Prosecuting Authority has not acted without fear or favour or prejudice as envisaged in the preamble of the legislation that governs it (Act 32 of 1998). I am in agreement with the Centre for Constitutional Rights that the NPA "bears the sole responsibility for determining who will, and who will not be, prosecuted". That is, at least, according to legislation. Is a senior member of the NPA not supposed to ensure that something is done about his/her knowledge of violations of the law? Should he run to the media and make many reckless allegations that have not been investigated and proven by any court of law? As the ANC is going to its Mangaung Congress in 2012 it is expected that allegations of the improper use of state organs will be rife and unfortunately the new head of the SIU is not reassuring on this aspect.
Dankie aan Paarl Post vir plasing van di� berig
HIERMEE my hartlike dank aan Paarl Post vir die plasing van die berig "Waar is sy Bybel?" in verlede week se uitgawe. 'n Siel op Wiele, Koos Mouton van Malmesbury, was op die betrokke dag in sy vragmotor op die N1 toe 'n motorfiets by hom verbygery het. Volgens Koos het iets wat soos papiere gelyk het, uit die persoon op die motorfiets se rugsak gevlieg en langs die pad beland. By nadere ondersoek vind Koos dat dit 'n besonderse Familiebybel is. Behalwe vir die buite-omslag wat losgeruk het, was skade aan die Bybel minimaal. Die Bybel het uit my kleinseun se rugsak geval terwyl hy van Kaapstad na Worcester op pad (wat op pad Port Elizabeth toe was met 'n vrag), by Worcester Ultra City ontmoet en die Bybel in ontvangs geneem. Metdi�datKoosgedurigopdie pad is en nooit kerk toe kan gaan nie en nie 'n Bybel in sy vragmotor het nie, het ons saam besluit om die beloning wat ons aangebiedhettegebruikomBybelsonder die Siele op Wiele te versprei. Benewens Koos se 10% van die beloning, is 'n "klein Bybeltjie" met kernverse van die 60 Bybelboeke, aan hom oorhandig. Verder gaan Koos, sy vrou en elkeen van sy vier dogters asook die twee bogenoemde persone wat betrokke was, elk 'n Bybel ontvang. Rudolph Spies, Worcester
was om dit vir my te bring. Koos se mededrywer, Gelomp, hetdievoorvaloorvertelaanGregory by die kontroledepot in Kuilsrivier wat toevallig die berig oor die Bybel in die Paarl Post gelees het. Gregory het toe die nommer in die berig geskakel en Koos se selnommer aan ons gegee. Saterdagoggend het ons toe vir Koos
16 Dae van Aktivisme: Waar is ons regte?
ONS nader alweer nog 'n veldtog van 16 dae teen geweld teen vroue en kinders. Ek vra myself af wat beteken dit vir ons? Absoluut niks. Geweld is aan die orde van die dag. Ons word verneder, aangerand, misbruik en selfs wreed vermoor. N�rens is daar hulp nie. Kom ons by die polisie word ons weggewys. Spottenderwys word daar ges� dis huismoles. Baie kere word ons weer verneder deur onopgevoede beamptes. As jy die naweek oorleef en jou na die hof wend, is daar net probleme. Die klerke help jou nie; hulle verstaan nie, want dis net weer 'n vrou wat kom kla en simpatie soek. Later die middag word jy net ges� daar is nie 'n landdros nie. Hoe kan dit wees? My lewe is dan in gevaar, maar die hof help nie. Hoeveel vroue moet omdraai as hulle gaan hulp soek, veral as dit by onderhoud of interdikte kom? Is dit nie so dat ons regte gewaarborg is deur die Grondwet nie? Soms wonder ek van watter Grondwet hulle praat. Dis tyd dat ons opstaan en eis dat ons geregtig is op menswaardigheid en gelykheid in die o� van die reg en elke mens. Ons moet diegene uitwys wat nie vir ons wil help nie - en die vernietiging van ons selfbeeld stop. Baie dae hoor ek hoe vrouens kla dat die polisie s� hulle moet Maandag weer kom. Baie keer word ons nie eens gehelp of na 'n plek van veiligheid geneem nie. Moet in vadersnaam nie 'n stem teen die onreg teen u eie mure laat vasslaan nie, maar laat die w�reld weet. Net vrou wees
LAERSKOOL Paulus Joubert het onlangs 'n skoolbiblioteek gekry en het 'n groot behoefte aan boeke. Onlangs is 'n voorstel aanvaar dat elke streekhoflanddros 'n boek sal skenk aan Paulus Joubert Prim�r. Dit is belangrik dat ons kinders lees. Ek doen 'n beroep op al ons oud-studente om ook deel te word van die inisiatief. Enige leesmateriaal wat geskik is vir kinders tot graad 7 word verwelkom. Bring dit na die boekehouer by die streekhof (hoek van Hoofstraat en Markstraat) in die Paarl. Landdros Patrick Ross
Kabeldiewe pleeg sabotasie
KABELDIEFSTAL is lankal sabotasie en 'n misdaad teen die staat en die burgers van die RSA. Waarom kan die oorywerige wetskrywers wat aanhou wette probeer deurvoer wat ons demokrasie sal benadeel, nie die misdaad van alle kabeldiefstal verander na sabotasie nie? Die bre� publiek besef nie watter skade ly die land oor die sabotasie deur klein en groot sindikate nie. Treine kom tot stilstand en Transnet ly skade, Telkom ly skade, Eskom ly skade, die publiek ly skade, asook munisipaliteite en maatskappye. Die sindikate is ingerig om 'n taak met milit�re presisie uit te voer. Telefoon- en ander kabels word met voertuie af- en uitgeruk. Foonpale word omgeruk sodat die kabels naby of op die grond l� en binne minute afgesaag en opgelaai word. N� donker is die meeste polisiepersoneel van diens af en dan word hierdie diefstal gepleeg. Alle skuldiges aan koperkabelsabotasie moet 'n minimum van tien jaar harde arbeid kry. Kobus Malan

Hof gesluit vir `party'
VRYDAG haas ek my na die Landdroskantoor op Wellington net om te kyk of my vriend gehelp is met die aansoek om interdik. Maar almal is na die `party' toe. Daar is niemand, nie 'n klerk, nie 'n aanklaer of landdros nie. Soos ek die Wet verstaan, moet daar elke dag van die week 'n landdros wees om interdikte te teken en dit sluit naweke in. N�rens staan daar dat 'n party belangriker is as my reg tot menswaardigheid nie. 'n Kantoor `party' is nie 'n reg nie. Hoe kan kantoorbestuurders toelaat dat 'n hof se deure om 13:00 sluit terwyl die gemeenskap bedien moet word? Hoeveel van ons moet nog verneder en brutaal vermink word terwyl hof-amptenare party hou? Dit is 'n flagrante skending van menseregte. Is ons dan nie veronderstel om eerste te wees nie? Of bestaan Batho Pele nie in Wellington nie? Ek skaam my, want die stelsel faal ons mense. Anoniem
Thank you Paarl
BEFORE I return to Wales for my 100th birthday, I would like to thank all of Paarl for their hospitality, gracefulness, kindness and more. It has now been at least my 30th journey to Paarl and I have never been disappointed. I especially wish to thank Col van der Westhuizen of the Paarl police station for taking the time to show me around the station. A big thank you to Cultivaria and your Mayoress for their special courtesies to me. By mentioning these few names does not mean that you, the readers, are not included - you are.
Searson Thompson, Y-Wyddfa, Wales
FUN. Despite the sweltering heat on Sunday, there was enthusiastic particpation in the first Wine, Dine & Dog Day held at Nelson's Creek Wine Estate on Sunday. Dogs and their human handlers travelled from as far afield as Cape Town and Somerset West to take part in the day of four legged fun. All proceeds of the day went to the Wellington SPCA.

CRIME. On the eve of his 100th birthday, a visitor from Wales, Searson Thompson was shown the ropes at the Paarl police station by Col Desmond van der Westhuizen. Thompson was very interested in the workings of a police station, as his home town of Aberdovey has no police station, due to the lack of crime. Here Thompson is shown the operational room at the police station where police officers monitor footage from closed circuit cameras which have been placed along Lady Grey Street and at Huguenot railway station. Thompson is on his annual holiday in Paarl. Pic: Lise Beyers.
UITBLINKER. Glenn Ward blink uit in handfietsry en mik vir die SA Paraplegiese Spele.
Glenn ken van vasbyt
Frans le Roux GLENN WARD (21), `n passievolle "bloubloed" Paarliet, se lewe het in 2008 tydens sy matriekjaar aan Ho�r Jongenskool drasties verander. Glen was die passasier agterop `n vriend se motorfiets toe hulle `n ongeluk maak. Hy vertel wat daardie aand gebeur het: "Ons het gery toe sien ons nie die gat langs die drein nie. Toe ons deur hom is, was dit reeds te laat." Hy was maande lank in die hospitaal en rehabilitasiesentrum. Glen is vandag `n parapleeg, verlam vanaf die bors tot by sy voete. Op skool was hy `n kranige sportman wat in rugby sowel as krieket geskitter en sy provinsiale kleure verower het: "Sport was my lewe op skool, ek het Boland krieketkleure gekry en het eerstespan-rugby gespeel." N� baie moeilike tye het hy uiteindelik besef hy sou nie sport kon ignoreer nie. Die atletiekgogga het hom gebyt en hy kies gewigstoot en diskus as sy twee areas. Hy ontvang in 2009 toe WP-kleure. Tydens sy deelname aan die Suid-Afrikaanse Paraplegiese Spele in 2010 oortref hy verwagtinge en slaan twee goue medaljes los in sy onderskeie items. Goud was steeds nie vir hierdie lewenslustige jong man genoeg nie en hy het `n nuwe uitdaging gaan soek: "Ek het nie daarvan gehou om stil te sit tydens atletiek nie." Ward het hom toe by `n handfietsgroep aangesluit. Hy beoefen al reeds vyf maande die nuwe fietsry en geniet elke oomblik. "Die fietsry maak dat ek kan leef en rondbeweeg". Handfietse is egter geweldig duur en Ward het lank gesoek na die regte een. "Ek gaan nog lank aan hom afbetaal," vertel hy laggend. Kort nadat hy begin het, ontvang hy WP kleure vir handfiets ook. Die onderhoud op fietse is nogal duur en baie tegnies: "My pa help my daarmee en sonder hom sou ek nie kon deelneem nie." Hy is so gretig om te verbeter dat hy net wil inklim en ry. Sy dryfkrag is ongelooflik. Volgens Ward put hy sy grootse motivering vanuit sy geloof. "Ek staan elke oggend op en s� vir die Here dankie vir alles wat ek het." Hy sit in `n rolstoel, maar wil steeds berge versit en die onmoonltike vermag. Hy deel die sport met legendes soos Ernst van Dyk (ook van die Paarl). Naas sy geloof het hy `n baie sterk ondersteunersbasis wat bestaan uit sy liefdevolle familie en natuurlik sy meisie. "Ek het `n awesome familie en `n great meisie wat my lewe n� die ongeluk baie vergemaklik het." Ward volg ook `n streng oefenprogram. "Ek is ses dae van die week in die gimnasium en naweke op die fiets." Onlangs het 6 Star MuscleTech sy potensiaal gesien en besluit om hom te borg: "Dit is baie cool dat hul my borg, ek kry gratis aanvullings wat my help tydens my oefeninge." Op die pad vorentoe vir Ward is die SA Spele 2012 in Durban: "Ek beoog om gekies te word vir die SA byeenkoms in Durban en sal enige hulp of donasies waardeer om my daar te kry." Hy benodig hulp met reis-, verblyf- en onderhoudskoste vir sy fiets. Skakel hom op 079 273 3981 om by te dra tot sy droom.

Arrive safely home after holidays
"ALL Safely Home programmes and initiatives aimed at increasing road safety during the festive season are in place as a transversal approach between the Western Cape Departments of Community Safety, Transport and Health."k These were the words of Minister of Transport and Public Works, Robin Carlisle, at the launch of the annual Safely Home campaign. This festive season, authorities will once again focus on visibility, enforcement and education on all national and provincial routes in the Western Cape. "Our Safely Home campaign sees an integrated law enforcement approach and has brought about a 23% reduction in road fatalities in two-and-a-half years. "Whilst all law enforcement officers and medical personnel will be out in full force, we urge every road user to take responsibility and to act in the interest of safety." DIAMONDS. Paarl East police literally struck gold last week when they discovered diamonds (foreground) to the value of possibly hundreds of thousands of rands, in the possession of an alleged drug dealer. Police noticed the vehicle of Riduaan Abrahams (alias Waanie) who has previously been linked to drug dealing in Canary Street, Amstelhof. They stopped and searched him and instead of finding drugs in his possession, they found a handful of uncut diamonds in a pocket together with almost R5000 in cash. Abrahams could not explain where the glistening stones came from. He was arrested and the case has been taken over by the organised crime division of the police. Local jeweller Wickus Viljoen said that because the diamonds have not been cut yet, it is difficult to establish exactly how many carats they are, as well as their true value. Pic: Lise Beyers During this period all law enforcement operations will be integrated with SAPS and local Traffic Departments as well as other role players like SARS and Home Affairs. The road agencies are on board to assist with possible emergency road closures and road works, barring major road projects like the N7 project, will be removed to ensure a free flow of traffic. Alcohol and speed are the biggest contributing factors to fatalities on roads and the focus will be to act and rid roads of drunk drivers and speedsters. Integrated weekend alcohol operations will thus continue and motorists can be assured that they will be stopped and tested for driving under the influence. The authorities will be holding more than double the usual number of roadblocks over the two-month period. A total of 325 roadblocks will see 320 000 vehicles being pulled over.
BEENDERE. Die Paarl polisie is Sondagoggend uitgeroep na die oewer van die Bergrivier by Jupiterstraat, Noorder-Paarl, toe beendere gevind is n� 'n grasbrand. Die toneel is versper terwyl daar gewag is vir forensiese deskundiges. By nadere ondersoek is daar vasgestel dat die beendere di� van 'n hond was en al die bohaai was dus verniet. Foto: Lise Beyers OP HANDE GEDRA. Nou met die Kersseisoen voor die deur, kan werknemers verwag dat hulle werkgewers hulle met lekker bonusse op die hande sal dra. Dit lyk asof die werkgewers van die klerewinkel Nothing Plein in Paarl-Suid die daad by die woord voeg. Of is dit 'n winkelpop wat so op die hande gedra word?

Nuwe vlagskip van Suzuki
SUZUKI is in Suid-Afrika bekend vir hulle klein 4x4 voertuie, die Jimny en Vitara asook klein luikrugmodelle, die Alto en Swift en dan hulle natuurlik `n lang geskiedenis as vervaardigers van motorfietse. Maar met die Japanese motorvervaardiger se nuutste model, die Kizashi, plaas dit Suzuki's in `n heel ander klas. Die marksegment waarin die Kizashi val is `n redelik gewilde mark, die C- en D-segment sedanmotors. Daar is heelwat modelle in hierdie mark met `n groot verskil in pryse.

Steppingstones to a successful education
THERE are various steppingstones and skills that parents need to develop in their children to prepare them for school. ) Language: Sing nursery rhymes and make up nonsense sentences to make your child laugh and encourage them to correct the sentence (the frog was riding a bike in the sky). ) Talk and laugh with your child. Tell familiar stories and also make up stories together (cut pictures out of magazines and stick them in a blank book to make own story). Encourage your child to talk about himself and how he feels. ) Pre-reading: Teach your child the basic colours, saying the alphabet, he/shoud should know the names and sounds of letters and develop an early interest in books by reading to him/her as often as possible. ) Knowledge skills: Talk about the different sizes of everyday objects. Use daily activities to discuss concepts such as wet/dry, hot/ cold, bigger/smaller etc. Build jigsaw puzzles together. ) Give step by step instructions so they know how to do things, as they get older tell them what you want done and they must work out the best order to use, give them choices (2 or 3 things at first, then more � don't give choices about non-negotiable things). ) Encourage your child to ask questions, ask them questions to prevent them from merely accepting things as they ask, ask ridiculous questions to get them to expand their imagination and curiosity � what if you had 4 arms, what if we had a magic carpet etc. Look for shapes every way, make them out of biscuits and bread, cut out READY. Youngsters love colouring in. From left are Bernito Collins, Zensia Isaacs, Duran Jansen and Moa Ruiters hard at work.
shapes and make them into pictures. ) Enhancing concentration skills: Put a few items on a tray, cover them up and encourage your child to recall the items, create a pattern/sequence out of different coloured blocks, mix them up and ask your child to recreate it, play pairs with cards, read, read, read and ask simple questions, as a rough guide, multiply your child's agebythreetodeterminehowmany minutes they should be able to concentrate for. ) Organisational skills: Encourage your child to tidy up after himself. Don't say clean up all your toys, rather tell them to put their books away,oncethisisdoneputawaythe puzzles and so on. This is much less daunting for them. ) Let them help around the house � taking their plates to the sink, putting their clothes away. Have a set tidy up time each day. Have a routine in place ) Numeracy: Count together how many times do they jump, how many cars parked next to the house, how many petals on the flower, give them cherry tomatoes

and encourage them to count them as you give them one at a time and then count again each time one is eaten. Count how many arms and legs they have as you wash them and how many fingers and toes as you dry them. Make up rhymes about numbers or sing familiar counting nursery rhymes. Separate blocks into different coloured piles or different size piles. ) Social skills: Practise what you preach. Remember to use please and thank you. Set the example for how to take it in turns when speaking or doing things. Let them see you being polite and positive to people. Expose them to social time with other children. Tell stories so they learntosit,listenandpayattention. Don't expect the television to teach them this. ) Physical skills: Set an example for bathroom hygiene. ) Play together in the garden with throwing, kicking and catching balls of different sizes and textures. Let them colour, cut out, draw, paint, play with play dough, ice, mix cakes, cut biscuits. And give them love unconditionally.

Albei groepe het R3500 vir die skool ingepalm en ook 'n ekstra R3000 vir 'n tweede plek wat die leerders in die Plakkaat-afdeling behaal het. "So kon ons met die toestemming van die CD," vertel Dimitro, wat saam met opvoeder Dorothy Arnolds verantwoordelik is vir die afrigting van die kore. "Al die liedjies en selfs die skoollied is deur Dimintro gekomponeer," s� Dorothy. "Die kinders was baie opgewonde, want hulle weet dit beteken dat hulle vir ons skool geskiedenis maak," spog Dimitro. Skoolhoof Pieter Solomons is baie trots op dietoegewyde leerdersen hul positiewe ingesteldheid teenoor die skool. Afeesah Julies, senior departementshoof, glo dat dit slegs die afskop van nuwe hoogtes vir die skool is. "Ons wil graag h� hierdie kinders moet op 'n toer gaan om vir hulle meer blootstelling te gee.

THE Paarl business sector was recently given a new lease on life with the development of the Riverside Industrial Park in Textile Street. Here, the old and almost forgotten factories of British American Tobacco were purchased by Van der Sluys Projects and they are being transformed into upmarket factory and office space. The main factory building on the corner ofTextileandMoniStreetshasbeenstylishly converted into ten sectional title factories, of which seven have already been purchased. The public have been turning their heads here at the new `polka-dot' fascia of this building. Van der Sluys Projects have themselves convertedpartofthesiteadjacenttotheBerg River to house their own offices. Currently work is also in progress, converting another factory on the property into the new headquarters of Collotype Labels. This move means that Collotype (currently housed at the corner of Market Street and Jan van Riebeeck Drive),will bequadrupling the size of their factory and office space. DeveloperAlexvanderSluyssaidthatthis project was definitely a boost to the local economy. "Theownersofthefactorieswhichwehave already sold are from out of town and are bringing their business here. "The location of the factory is ideal and it is also within walking distance from Huguenot Station."

Prepare now � before the season gets too silly
IN the rush and thrill of composing gift lists, making holiday bookings or preparing Christmas menus, consumers should not forget the more mundane, though arguably more important, preparations for the silly season. Without wishing to be the Grinch who stole Christmas, Gari Dombo, Managing Director of Alexander Forbes Insurance, cautions South Africans "to take a few moments to go through the following check list ahead of setting off on holiday, welcoming your visitors or laying out on that big family bash." Are your 24/7 numbers up to date, for both car and household emergencies? Take a few minutes to call them and check that they are indeed right and still operable. "You don't want to be wasting valuable time or, worse still, be unable to reach your insurance and other emergency providers on a public holiday," warns Dombo. If you are travelling long distances by vehicle make sure your cover is up to date and fully paid. "If you are planning to take your vehicle across one of our borders check that you are covered in the neighbouring territory that you are travelling to" adds Dombo. If not, purchase any additional vehicle cover necessary, including vehicle repatriation cover as it can be very expensive to repatriate a damaged vehicle from a neighbouring country. Also, when travelling across our borders be sure to purchase the compulsory motor liability cover of the country that you are entering and "it pays to find out what is required in advance so there are no surprises at the border," suggests Dombo. Panel beaters close from mid December to mid January. So, if you are dependent on your vehicle for the holiday period make sure your policy provides a replacement hired vehicle, or buy temporary vehicle replacement hire cover for the period, "because if your car is damaged it may well not be able to be repaired until mid January," warns Dombo. Check that you have sufficient personal accident cover as well as sufficient medical emergency evacuation cover for that international trip. Local medical aid cover, as well as the cover provided through credit card ticket purchase, is usually insufficient to cover the amounts required for treatment in or emergency evacuation from a foreign country. If you are leaving your home, ideally leave it in the care of a competent house-sitter. Make sure the house-sitter knows all your 24/7 numbers and, beyond police and security companies, that your house-sitter is also able to liaise with your insurer, deal with your vet and contact your plumber and electrician. The house-sitter should be made familiar with the arming and de-arming of the burglar alarm and be instructed to arm the alarm whenever the home is unattended. "Homeowners should also let their insurers or brokers know if someone else is staying in their home and that the house-sitter is authorised to contact them on their behalf," advises Dombo. The house-sitter should be sure to collect letters from your letter box, put the outside lights on at night and continue to trim the lawn and maintain the garden as if you were there. If you don't have a house-sitter, arrange for your mail to be collected by neighbours, have a few lights on day and night switches, alert your security company that you are away and ensure that their accounts are fully paid. Be sure to check that your alarm is working and ringing through to the security response company. You should also make sure that your alarm sensors work properly and consider replacing the battery if it is old. Also, make sure your pool pump timer is working, or switch off the pool pump completely. Unplug all electronic equipment to protect it from electricity surges and lightning strikes. Don't leave meat in the freezer or perishables in the fridge as in the event of power failures these may ruin. Ideally, empty your freezer and fridge and switch them off for the whole period that you are away," advises Dombo. It is also a good idea to switch off all your geysers as this saves electricity and eliminates the possibility of water damage from a burst pipe or leaking geyser. Policy holders should also ensure that pipes, drains and gutters are cleared of debris and leaves so that water can flow freely through and off their property avoiding flooding and damage in their absence. Either way, ensure that your household contents cover is up to date and correctly lists the current replacement value of your insured goods. Check the details of your cover to see what security is required. Most policies require burglar bars, security doors, and an electric fence and/or an alarm connected to a security response team. "Not having the security required by your policy could see any claims lodged on your return rejected," says Dombo. If you are renting a holiday home on the coast or anywhere else, "make sure that you have an all risks policy that covers electronic and other goods, jewellery and clothing that you and your family take with you in the event these are lost or stolen from you condo or car while on holiday," adds Dombo. While this seems like an exhaustive list of preparations they are actually all very logical and each only involves a few calls, checks or explanations. Putting the right precautions and preparations in place in the weeks leading up to Christmas or your well-earned break will ensure that if anything does go wrong on public holidays or while you are away it is managed with minimum cost, lost time or inconvenience."

A NATIONAL travelling exhibition of artworks by Cecil Skotnes, from the KWV art collection, is to be opened in Paarl on 14 December. Titled"Homecoming",thisisthefinalexhibition in an epic journey which has continued nationwide throughout 2011, and a celebration of the return of the collection back to its home at the Laborie Wine Farm. In 1977, Cecil Skotnes created a piece for KWV which is arguably one of the artist's most exceptional works. Based on one of the oldest stories of humankind, the Epic of Gilgamesh, Skotnes reimagined this story as the Origin of Wine, and translated it into a remarkable woodcarved panel. This work celebrates not only the complex heritage of the wine-making industry in the Cape, but evokes a love for wine which stems from the ancient epoch of Gilgamesh and continues to the present day. KWV again asked Skotnes to create two series of works for their 1979 and 1982 art calendars. The 1982 series depicts twelve extraordinary landscapes from the Cape region, which powerfully capture the unique terroir from which KWV's wines are produced. To honour Skotnes and his association with wine, KWV is pleased to present The Epic of Everlasting. Through this exhibition, KWV wishes to share their treasures of Cecil Skotnes' artistry, and encourage the public to take part in a wine and art experience which will continue to build on the KWV arts heritage into the future. * Enter the Epic of Everlasting treasure hunt competition happening in Paarl from 1 December until 9 December and stand a chance to win legendary prizes. See www. epicofeverlasting.co.za for details.
