IERDIE takkie van ’n boom wat duidelik siek is, is na die Highlands Panorama Nuus se Hkantoor gebring.

Dit blyk dat daar ’n dik laag besoedeling op die blare voorkom, wat die boom versmoor en keer dat sonlig op die blare val.Lydenburg gaan reeds jare gebuk onder erge lugbesoedeling en as mens stadig deur die woongebiede ry, is dit aan die huise se dakke duidelik

As a registered NPO, Lydenburg Christian Private School t/a Entheos often needs to rely heavily on the community.Seven years ago a plot of land was purchased in the school’s name. Since that time they have been saving and planning to build a school of their own. On Thursday 14 January that dream became a reality. Their building project is now almost complete. The school said they would not have come this far if it had not been for the support and generosity of many businesses and individuals, in and around our town, Hannes Viljoen and Marius Truscott, for generously giving more than expected, Ackerman Saagmeule, for the compost, Glencore Lydenburg Smelter, for the slag, Lampies van der Nest, Leon and Lehett Van Der Nest for the wood work in the new building, Willie Roeloffze for uprooting the grass, Chris Jankowitz and Marnus Van Wijk for ripping up the grounds, Gawie Mare Panelbeaters for the lowbed truck to transport the grass, Toyota for the truck to transport

offices and furniture, Deo Volente for the grass, Andre Wessels for the irrigation system and tyres, Kynoch for KAN for the grass, Hi Q and Supa Quick for tyres for playground, LewendeWoord for the Marquee Tent (to be used as a temporary school hall), Mega Paints for paint for the tyres, Barry Roets for general work and shelving, Nadia Venter who always go above and beyond what is required, Willem Pretorius for the stepping stones for pathways.Should any person or company wish to invest in the future of the school and community please feel free to contact Entheos for a list of items still needed.

DIE tekens dat die plaaslike ekonomie positief kan draai is daar. Dié van u wat lanklaas in Steelpoort was, kan gerus ’n slag deur dié plekkie ry (wanneer daar nie onrus in die gebied is nie). Die aansig van Steelpoort het in twee jaar geweldig verander. Myne en ontwikkelaars belê in die gebied. Nuwe besighede word gevestig, die paaie in die dorp is herstel en ’n algemene positiewe gevoel heers. Dieselfde veranderinge is in Burgersfort te bespeur.

Hoe raak dit Lydenburg? Wel, Lydenburg is die grootste dorp in die gebied en bied steeds die meeste besighede en dienste. Baie van Steelpoort en Burgersfort se mense verkies Lydenburg se matige klimaat en woon hier. Dit beteken hulle koop hulle kos, melk en brandstof hier.Die beplande ontwikkeling van die stuk grond tussen Ruiterstraat en die Visserye kan groot voordele inhou, deurdat mense hulle hier vestig en die koopkrag verbeter.Ons het baie probleme met infrastruktuur, onrus, die status van die ekonomie en elke ding, wat aar

geneig is om ons negatief te maak. Elke week maak ’n besigheid toe, maar daar maak nuwes oop. Faktore wat besighede negatief beïnvloed sluit baie dinge in, waaronder gebrekkige bemarking en swak diens. As besighede net hierdie twee aspekte aggressief aanspreek, sal dinge positief verander. Sluit aan by die Sakekamer en by BNI, leer by ander mense en groei. Vertel mense waar jy is, wat jy bied en waarom jy beter is. Adverteer in die plaaslike koerante. Terwyl ons mor, is daar ontwikkelaars, entrepreneurs en mense wat risikos neem, stilweg besig om plaaslik te belê in die toekoms. En hulle gaan wen, terwyl ons sit en kla. So maak vas jou skoenveters, vat ’n kans en staan op uit die as. Jou groei sal my bevoordeel en my groei sal ander bevoordeel.

Psalm 92:13: Die regverdige sal groei soos ’n palmboom; hy sal opgroei soos ’n seder op die Libanon. Here ons hunker na regverdigheid en voorspoed. Skenk ons dit ons Vader - Amen.

Ek droom van Namakwaland gisteraand. Van die plate blomme. Ek weet nie wat dit beteken dat ek soos ’n skapie wil huppel tussen die blommetjies nie. Maar ai dit bly ’n lekker droom. Die droom het my laat dink aan die Byeboerwa se lirieke: ‘Blom in die hare en bye wat pla.’ Die afgelope naweek het ek op RSG gehoor hoe die toeroperateurs die blommeland-vakansies adverteer. So ’n paar jaar gelede was ek en my ma in Namawakland. Daar was blomme, plate daarvan in Namakwaland. Gansog ies , Bokhor ink ies , Gousb lomme, Bokbaaivygies, Bababoutjies, Botterblom en Suurvye. Doemprofete het gewaarsku voor ons vertrek: “Julle sal niks blomme sien nie.” Maar hoorhierso, ek moes partykeer my oë knip om weer te kan fokus op die kleurpalette. So ver soos jou oë sien is dit geel, wit, pers, pienk en groen waar ’n maand gelede net barre aarde was. Op party plekke staan varkore tussen lang gras en luister wat die wit Sneeukoppies plat op die grond fluister. Dit is stil waar die mense staan en kyk want niemand hoef te sê dat dit mooi is nie, dit is net. As iemand wat my eie ding doen was dit ’n ondervinding om vir vyf dae saam met ’n toergroep vakansie te hou. En ek is heerlik verkeerd bewys op my vooropgestelde idees oor mense. Die mense op die bus, soos Laurika Rauch sing, raak vriende. Dit is gewis, elke mens het ’n storie. En soos mens rustig jouself oorgee aan die natuur sien jy die beauty in elkeen se storie. Terug in die stowwerige Mpumalanga het ek besef die 6 000km wat ons gery het was ’n voorreg. Behalwe dit het ons wyn geproe in Franschhoek, Stellenbosch, Vredendal en Groot Constantia. Ons is op langs die Weskus, Yzerfontein, Saldanha en middagete geniet by die Paterenoster Hotel. Deur die hele Namakwaland het ons gereis tot bo by Gharies en Springbok.Onder andere deur die Jonkershoekberge, Piketberge en die Pakhuisberge waar C. Louis Leipoldt begrawe lê. Ek sal graag my voete wil verskuif na Paarl of Franschhoek permanent. Die landskap is asembenewend. Kaapstad met sy een voet in die see en Tafelberg met sy wolkekombers is pragtig. Elke keer as ek die Weskaap deurreis sê ek daar is te min tyd. En hierdie keer was nie anders nie. Alles was wonderlik, soos A. G. Visser dig:

Maar kollega, ek gaan terug na my land waar ou Heidelberg hang

aan die Suikerbosrand

Ai blommie, hopelik is ek weer eendag in Blommeland.Deur Michelle Boshoff

WAT maak die BMW GS reeks motorfietse so suksesvol? Wel, dit is te wyte aan ’n Suid Afrikaner, Pieter De Waal, hoof van BMW Motorsport. BMW het vir jare die plat tweesilinder enjin ontwikkel en motorfietse gebou wat slegte paaie kan hanteer. Hulle het ’n goeie produk gebou, maar moes meeding teen meer “moderner” kompetisie.De Waal het besluit dat BMW nie soseer die fietse moes bemark nie. Hy het met ’n revolusionêre konsep vorendag gekom. Hulle verkoop ’n lewenstyl. En dit het gewerk. Vandag is 7 uit elke 10 avontuurfietse wat verkoop word, BMW GS 1200’s. Hulle het die hele pakket. Van die fiets, bybehore, bagasie, klere, valhems en elke ding. Jy koop jou fiets en R100 000 se bybehore saam en die hele boksemdaais word op een transaksie gefinansier. ’n Leefstyl.Kyk na die Suid Afrikaanse motorfietsmark. Drie uit elke vyf motorfieste is avontuurfietse of sogenaamde “Dual Purpose” (DP) fietse waarmee jy die land vol kan toer. Ander vervaardigers soos Yamaha, KTM, Honda en Truimph verkoop deesdae uitstekende DP fietse, baie volgens hulle eienaars “beter” as ’n BMW. Hulle bemarking is net nie so goed nie. Dié fietse is baie duur. Maar jy koop nie ’n fiets om mee werk toe te ry nie. Jy koop ’n lewenstyl. Dink aan jou jongdae. Jy koop ’n groot fiets met “scrambler” DNA wat mak en gerieflik genoeg is om teerpaaie ook op te vreet, maar nie skrik vir ’n slegte grondpad nie. Eienaars is gewoonlik ook effe ouer as die gemiddelde motorfietsryer. Op 61 ry ek self een en van my beste “memories” is alleen (in ’n groep) op my Yamaha. Ek het al die hele land deurkruis en paaie en plekke gesien wat ek nooit per motor of selfs met my 4x4 gesien het nie.Jy hoef ook nie die grootste en duurste fiets op die mark te koop nie. As jy teen 200 km/u wil jaag, koop ’n superfiets, maar bly op die teer. Al die DP fietse van 800 cc en groter kan 200 ry, maar wat is die punt? Jy toer. Jy wil plekke sien. Jy soek vars lug en jy wil jou kop skoon kry. Sonder stres. Meeste vervaardigers bied tans teen sowat R 110 000 uitstekende enkelsilinder DP fietse wat meer as 150 op die snelweg kan ry. In die gebruikte mark kan jy ’n goeie 650 koop vir tussen R 40 000 en R 80 000. Jy gaan wegkom met ’n valhelm, beskermende baadjie en stewels vir so R 15 000. Dit klink na baie, maar glo my, as jy versigtig is, is dit ’n belegging in jouself en jou gesondheid. En die fietse is betroubaar. 100 000 Km vir dié fietse is niks. Ry agterpaaie en bly weg van snelweë en mal motoriste af. As ek Kaap toe ry bly ek van die N1 af. Ry deur die pragtige Oos Vrystaat en deur Golden Gate. Of deur die Noordkaap. Drink koffie op Pofadder of oornag in Garies. Neem ’n paar lesse by talle ryskole, kry jou lisensie en ry versigtig. Bly uit die verkeer. Jy sal nie spyt wees nie.Gaan kyk ook na die Yamaha Super Tenere by McGee en Kie. Koop vir jou ’n leefstyl.Andre Coetzee.

THE guys over at TheAutomobilist.fr were able to source these shots of what seems to be a more hardcore version of the already hardcore Renault Clio RS. It is rumoured that this will be called the Clio RS 16.The first changes to be noticed are the flared wheel arches, imposing rear spoiler for additional downforce and redesigned side skirts. The front fenders have also been ventilated to provide extra cooling for the brakes.The Clio RS 16 is believed to maintain the turbocharged 1,6-litre four-cylinder engine but with an added 22 kW giving it a final power output of 186 kW. Torque output is unknown and seeing as this is a leak there are no performance figures available either.It is suggested that the Clio RS 16 will see its reveal at the Monaco GP, and based on the interest it receives, Renault will decide whether it wishes to produce it or not. It’s unclear at this point, however whether this is a replacement model for the current RS or just a limited special edition.carmag.co.za

THE N division by Hyundai has been in the works for quite some time with a couple of hints of its developments showing up here and there. This weekend however, we may be set to witness a production scale model in action at the Nürburgring 24 Hours. Its appearance at this event aims to provide technical data to benefit the new division.

BUGATTI CEO Wolfgang Dürheimer has hinted that the automaker will effectively delimit the new Chiron should that be what a customer wants.Speaking to Car and Driver, Dürheimer said that with the Chiron’s “handling mode” engaged, a top speed of 385 km/h is possible. In this mode, there’s “maximum downforce and easy handling. It reacts like a go-kart,” he said.But toggling to “top speed” mode raises the limit to the full-fat 420 km/h. Thing is, Dürheimer revealed that this speed governor can also be completely disabled,

The car that is set to participate was built by the German-based Hyundai dealership. 40% of what we will see on this performance based i30 will be new with most of the focus being on the turbocharged 2,0-litre engine. The i30 also makes use of an enhanced suspension, dampers, more dynamic wheels, a revised steering system, wider bumpers and mandatory motorsport safety features for the race.Despite being developed at this weekend’s event, Hyundai hasn’t confirmed if it will be a production-scale N model despite a similar looking i30 being spied testing on the Nürburgring on more than one occasion. This model is also rumoured to produce 193 kW and 308 N.m of torque.Hyundai’s endurance focused test driver Bruno Beulen will be piloting the mysterious i30 around the ‘ring this weekend alongside Michael Bohrer, Alexander Köppen and Rory Pentinnen. They have all confirmed that the main goal for this race is to provide a technical analysis on the new performance car.carmag.co.za

before adding that Bugatti hasn’t taken the Chiron to its true top speed just yet.According to Car and Driver, the official top speed run will likely happen only in 2018. However, if Chiron customers wish to exceed the 420 km/h limit before then, Dürheimer hinted that Bugatti will be more than willing to help them to do so.“We haven’t driven top speed yet, but we hold the world record with the 268 [431 km/h] of the Veyron Supersport, and we know that we can push up the mark significantly with the extra 300 horsepower of the Chiron,” he said.The Chiron employs a W16, 8,0-litre engine with as many as four turbochargers. Peak power output stands at 1 119 kW, while maximum torque is a claimed 1 600 N.m.Interestingly, Dürheimer also revealed that Bugatti is already thinking about the Chiron’s successor.“We are following a sequential pattern. We don’t want to make two model lines, but we are deciding on the product that would succeed the Chiron.”“We are weighing four strategic alternatives, all of them sensational. One of them is the Galibier,” he said.Back in 2009, Bugatti unveiled the 16C Galibier, a five-door super-sedan concept.carmag.co.za

PURCHASING property is one of the most significant and costly financial decisions you will ever make, especially if it's your first home. Applying a few financial tips can allow you to pay your bond off quickly - benefiting your future financial security and resulting in a great investment at a reduced cost.1. All the small thingsFirst off, Barker says it is advisable to reduce - or completely cut - any short-term debt and retail accounts that are a drain on your budget before taking up a home loan.It's the small things that add up - for example, not purchasing that cup of coffee on your way to work at R15 could, over 50 weeks, mean an additional R3 750 freed up to put into your bond a year.Similarly, cutting out that R500 monthly spend on retail accounts that are not necessities adds up to an additional R 6000 in savings a year.These two simple savings tips could mean around R9 750 extra per year is freed up to be paid into your bond, which leads to months shaved off your bond term.For example, say you take a loan for R 750 000 at an interest

rate of 10% per annum over 240 months - or 20 years, with the assumption that the interest rate remains at 10% for the entire loan term. By making an additional payment of R500 to your monthly minimum instalment, you can bring your loan term down by 40 months. 2. Less is moreHaving additional cash in your budget means - should circumstances allow - you could pay a few hundred rands more over and above your minimum monthly instalments. This, again, translates into paying your bond off over a shorter term, paying less in interest and affording you more time to save for retirement.3. Do the mathBefore applying for a home loan, Barker says you must have a clear idea of what you can afford in terms of monthly bond instalmentsand expenses.For first-time homeowners in particular, affordability is a key consideration when attempting to pay your bond off faster. This will help you determine if you can afford the payments and the costs associated with owning a home, such as water and electricity, rates and taxes, maintenance, insurance or other unforeseeable expenses that can arise. Once you know what your monthly spend is going to be like, check if you will have a couple of hundred rands to spare.

“If the monthly repayments are more than what you have budgeted for, the price of the property is beyond your means. Look for a home within a lower price range to avoid finding yourself in a position where you don't have money left after paying your bond, or money to save,” says Barker.4. Save for a depositBaker says another way to bring the monthly repayment down - so that you can afford to put in extra - is by saving for a deposit before you actually make a home purchase.Your deposit should also be at least 10% of the purchase price.Barker says buying a home is a great achievement, and you need to approach your investment with caution in order to realise other financial goals you would like to achieve. www.property24.com.

DIE gemeente van die APK Kerk het Saterdagmiddag ’n heerlike kuier by die kerk gehou. Die dames het

koek gebak en dit onversier gebring. Die Koekedore (manne) moes dit toe na gelang van sekere temas versier. Daar was baie humor en pret en dit was

duidelik dat daar ’n paar kunstenaars onder hulle was. Ander moet hulle liewer maar by vleisbraai hou!

Die middag is gesellig afgesluit met heerlike potjiekos.

Duiwe Uitslae

M O D I K WA s o c c e r teams participated again in the annual SAMSA (South African Mining Spor t s Assoc ia t ion) Soccer tournament that was held in Carletonville (Gauteng) from the 17th to 21st May 2016 and was hosted by Sebanye Gold Mine Kloof Operation. This year proved to be a better year for the team as it was the first time ever that the team advanced from group stage to knockout stage of this tournament. Modikwa lost by 1-0 to Sebanye Gold on quarter-finals and Sebanye Gold were ultimately the winners of the tournament. Modikwa was the only team that lost narrowly to Sebanye Gold, all other t e a m s w e r e b e a t e n heavily by the 2016 Champions (Against Sebanye Gold - Northam lost by 5 - 0, Royal Bafokeng lost by 10 – 0, Harmony lost by 3 – 1 in the final). We are happy with the performance from our boys and most coaches congratulated us as if we were the winners, we were congratulated for our great performance improvement compared to previous years.Pos i t ive Notes for Modikwa1. Protus Sikhakhane was named the best organised & professional Coach of the tournament at the opening ceremony.2. Modikwa Soccer Team advanced from group stage to knock-out stage for the first time ever in the SAMSA Soccer Tournament.3. Modikwa Soccer Team labelled as the smartest and most disciplined team in the tournament.4. The team had no temporary employees (Learners) this year, hence a good chance of improving with the same players next year.5. Modikwa Team was a s k e d t o w r i t e a professional pledge on behalf of all the teams regarding the players and o f f i c i a l s ’ c o n d u c t t h r o u g h o u t t h e tournament, the pledge was read by Modikwa team captain (Shima S e k g o k g o b a ) a n d accepted by all with a big clap of hands.Negative Notes for Modikwa1. Lost their first game by 2 – 1.2. After leading by 1-0 for 75 minutes of the first

game, the team conceded 2 goals in the last 5 minutes of the game.The team is now busy with the preparations for the upcoming Eastern Limb top 16 soccer

tournament. We are inviting all the Eastern Limb Mines to register for this coming tournament. Kindly contact us for more information

regarding this tournament on 013 230 2092 or 082 318 4179
