Lane changes and closures are acommon site in Table View
thesedays. Desperate to find a solutionfor the traffic congestion
prob-lem in the area, a local wardcouncillor has proposed a
roadchange of her own.
Heather Brenner, councillor forWard 107 and chairperson of
theBlaauwberg Subcouncil, submitteda notice of motion during
lastweeks subcouncil meeting.
The motion is a proposal tochange the lanes across thePaarden
Island bridge to benefittraffic flow during morning rushhour.
A history of inadequate roadplanning along with massive
devel-opment has resulted in the trafficcongestion experienced in
theBlaauwberg region, Brenner saidin her motivation.
She added that while the antici-pated Sandown Link to the N7
andthe new MyCiTi public transportsystem are moves to address
thetraffic problem it will still not be ad-equate given the
expansion and de-velopment of the area.
It will be another two years be-fore the Sandown Link is
functional even if construction commencedimmediately ... she
said.
She added that the road construc-tion work currently under way
toexpand the Integrated Rapid Trans-port (IRT) system along
Blaauw-berg Road and soon on PotsdamRoad will only worsen the
trafficsituation, and lead to more frustra-tion for commuters.
My proposal of making twosouthbound lanes at the MarineDrive/R27
(Paarden Island) bottle-neck bridge over and onto the N1 isnot new,
but I believe it must be con-sidered now as an interim move
to-wards relief for our motorists,
Brenner said, adding that only mi-nor engineering would be
requiredto achieve this.
The proposal involves the closureof the Paarden Island bridge to
N1southbound traffic wanting to ac-cess the Marine Drive/R27.
But these could be directed tothe next (Woodstock) left
off-rampwhere minor engineering workswould facilitate their right
(west)turn over the N1, back onto the N1where they could take the
left
(northbound) off-ramp onto theR27.
Brenner reiterated that this pro-posal would involve minimal
engi-neering and also provide a cost-ef-fective and immediate
solution tothe problem.
It could be considered either asa morning peak hour
implementa-tion or as a full-time re-routing,she suggested.
Brenner said she was aware ofplans for major road changes in
the
Paarden Island/N1 area that willproduce a state-of-the-art
solutionto prevailing traffic problems.
But these plans are way downthe line and costly. We in
Blaauw-berg need a solution now.
Brenner asked that a report bemade to the local subcouncil on
thefeasibility of such a project.
The motion was accepted by thesubcouncil committee with
Coun-cillor Cynthia Clayton suggestingthat this be investigated as
a full-
time change to the road infrastruc-ture.
Subcouncil manager Peter Dea-con confirmed that the motion anda
descriptive schematic were in-deed delivered to Melissa Whitehe-ad,
executive director of transport,roads and stormwater
departmentyesterday.
It will be up to her to compile areport on the feasibility of
such aproject, Deacon said this couldtake up to three months.
Western Cape premier Helen Zille leads a group of cyclists
during the MyCiTi bus race that took place last week Wednesday. The
aim of the race wasto illustrate how taking the MyCiTi bus or
cycling to the CBD from Table View is less frustrating than driving
a car in peak traffic. The MyCiTi bus withlocal ward councillor Joy
McCarthy as a passenger arrived in town first in just 40 minutes.
The cyclists arrived nine minutes later whilst deputy
mayor,Alderman Ian Neilson arrived there in 57 minutes in his own
private car. Photo: Leon Steenkamp

A Table View resident is furiousafter a bogus company
allegedlyscammed her out of R3 400 afteragreeing to build a
pre-cast wallfor her.
Eloise Venter opened a case at Ta-ble View police after
discoveringthat the business she contracted, acertain Optima Walls
and Pavers,doesnt even exist.
She also claims the officer that
helped her open the case knows thesuspect has been involved in
simi-lar scams in the past.
Venter elaborates on her ordeal:I wanted a pre-cast wall in
front ofmy property so I started looking atall the companies
advertising in thepaper, on the internet and on Gum-tree. I
received various quotationsfrom large to smaller companies.
Ispotted an ad from Optima Wallsand Pavers (which had an
impres-sive write-up) and decided to get aquotation from them.
This Table View/Milnerton com-pany responded very quickly to
herenquiries and soon she paid R3 400deposit.
Unfortunately nothing ever ma-terialised after that. The
ownerkept giving excuses, but accordingto Venter these were all
just lies.
Next I went to the business ad-dress as listed on the invoice I
re-ceived, only to find that anothercompany occupies that address
andthey have never heard of theseguys. I did an extensive search
on
the Companies and IntellectualProperty Commission website
totrace the company registrationnumber, only to find the
companyregistered under that number is ac-tually a financial
service in Johan-nesburg!
Venter goes on to warn every-body to always check the address
ofsmall businesses even if it meansgoing to the premises.
She concludes: Always checkthe company registration numberand
insist on references. Do not just
accept a cell number and email ad-dress as contact details!
Insist on alandline as well.
Table View Police spokesperson,Lieutenant Elizabeth Munro
con-firms that a fraud case was laid bythe complainant and that a
55-year-old man is the suspect.
We cannot give his name, be-cause he hasnt been arrested yet.The
investigating officer, Det ConstDesmond November, asks that any-one
with information should con-tact him on 078 179 0495.
Wall, paving company a scam
A taxi driver was arrested last weekMonday when traffic
officials dis-covered he was drunk, did not havea valid drivers
licence and also nota permit to transport passengers.
The suspect also assaulted the of-ficers before attempting to
flee.
While the traffic officers were ongeneral patrol along Koeberg
Road(between Plattekloof and Blaauw-berg roads), they noticed a
ToyotaQuantum minibus taxi with a fullload of passengers was
closely fol-
lowing the path cut through peaktraffic by a fire and rescue
servicestruck in response mode.
The officers immediately stoppedthe minibus taxi and
interviewedthe driver. Apart from not beingable to produce a
drivers licenceand a relevant permit, officers alsodetected the
smell of liquor on hisbreath, which prompted them toconduct a
breathalyser test. Thesuspect would, however, not co-op-erate and
was told he would be ar-
rested.The suspect apparently became
aggressive, fighting off the two of-ficers by shoving one to the
groundand grabbing the other by his shirtwhile threatening him.
He then fled on foot towards theKillarney Race Track and
continu-ally tried to hail other minibus tax-is in an attempt to
escape.
He managed to get into one, butthe officers were able to stop
the get-away minibus taxi a few hundred
metres down the road where thesuspect was found lying on the
backseat.
After struggling to remove himfrom the vehicle and
apparentlyhaving to endure constant verbalabuse, officers managed
to restrainthe suspect.
He was taken to the shadow cen-tre where another breathalyser
testregistered 0,45mg of alcohol per1 000ml of breath.
The 26-year-old suspect,who later
produced a Code 03 learners li-cence, was detained at the
Milner-ton Police Station on charges ofdriving under the influence
of alco-hol, resisting arrest, assault, andtransporting persons for
rewardwithout the necessary permits.
Spokesperson for Cape Town traf-fic services, Chief Inspector
MerleLourens concludes: They didnt letup on doing what they needed
to doto get the drunk driver off the roadfor the publics
safety.
Taxi driver was in violation of several laws

The traffic situation in Table View is set toworsen this coming
week with a lane closureat the busy Blaauwberg Road and Raats/Pentz
Drive intersections.
The City of Cape Town has warned motor-ists of the planned
closure of one traffic lanenext to the MyCiTi bus station on
Blaauw-berg Road, from Saturday 25 February to Fri-day 2 March.
The lane will be closed for eight days andthe closure is
expected to cause considerabletraffic disruption in the area.
The city strongly advises residents in thearea to, if at all
possible, make alternativearrangements regarding their routes
andtravel times during these road closures, astraffic congestion is
expected to be particu-
larly bad during early morning and after-noon peak travel
times.
The closure of the lane as well as the tim-ing of the closure is
unavoidable, as engi-neers need to divert the underground Chev-ron
effluent line which currently still runsunder the Table View MyCiTi
station onBlaauwberg Road.
Chevron has given the city a limited win-dow of opportunity for
this work to be com-pleted.
Last Saturday one west-bound lane onBlaauwberg Road immediately
adjacent tothe MyCiTi station, including some 50m be-fore the
intersection with Raatz Drive, wasclosed, along with one right turn
lane onRaatz Drive.
These closures will stay in effect until Fri-day 2 March.
During this week, engineers will work inconjunction with Chevron
on diverting theunderground pipes as planned and ensuringthat all
safety requirements are met.
Work will continue throughout the dayand night. Additional
traffic and law en-forcement teams will be deployed in the areato
assist with the management of traffic.
Road users are advised to make alterna-tive arrangements, or to
allow for extra trav-el time in this area. The movement of MyCi-Ti
buses docking at this station will be unaf-fected, although delays
are expected.
The city deeply regrets the disruptioncaused by the planned
closure.

Ziggy the miniature Vietnamesepotbelly pig does not respond
tolocal pig dialect.
Oink! Oink! usually means,Look at the camera and smile, butthe
pig flatly ignored this requestby TygerBurger.
Ziggys Vietnamese twangsounds more like a Oeeeee!*snork*snork*
Oeeeee!, whichprobably means, What is this un-derneath the sand?
More sand!
While this newspaper talked toZiggys owner, Brian Thackwray,the
adorable pig could not getenough of Milnerton beachs sand.
Thackwray has been bringingZiggy to the beach virtually everyday
for the last two years, but forhis incorrigible pet every day is
anew adventure.
Im usually in a bit of a hurry,because I must go to work, but
to-day he is really enjoying himself,he laughs.
When asked how he knows that
Ziggy is enjoying it particularlythat day, he responded, Hes not
at-tacking me!
Ziggy is apparently quite a vio-lent little pig, and could
easily getfascinated with blood tricklingfrom an exposed ankle. In
fact, mostof the times Thackwray is hiding ingumboots.
Every now and again an unsus-pecting dog strolls past Ziggy,
butjust one Oeeee! will send the ca-nine scrambling.
The braver dogs might find Ziggyinteresting, but according to
Thack-wray there would be no contest ifone of these dogs has a
liking forpork.
In response to whether he recom-mends people to purchase a Ziggy
oftheir own, Thackwray answers:Hes pig-headed! I wouldnt
adviseanyone to get themselves one.
Ziggy loves walking back homeexactly the way he came by
follow-ing his own footsteps in the sand.
His smell and hearing is betterthan a dogs and hes much
cleanertoo, concludes Thackwray.
Adorable, but pig is a real handful
Ziggy, theminiature Vietnamese potbelly pig findsMilnerton
Beachs sand fascinating. He also loves biting the ankles of
hisowner, Brian Thackwray, but this painful fancy isnt enough
forThackwray to dislike this charming, yet pigheaded pig.

Melkbosstrand will soon beboasting a brand new upgrad-ed fire
station.
The Melkbosstrand Fire Bri-gade currently operates from
abuilding located on the corner ofBeach Road and 1st Avenue andwill
move to a site next to theBirkenhead Shopping Centre.
The move is part of the plan torelocate the Melkbosstrand
Cen-tral Business District (CBD)away from the beachfront.
Clearing of the constructionsite which will also be where thenew
MyCiTi bus station will belocated is already under way.
The larger fire station will oc-cupy some 550m of building
ar-ea.
Although a bigger facility, thestaff complement and vehicleswill
remain the same, said IanSchnetler, chief fire officer of thecitys
Fire and Rescue Service.
The new station will have athree-bay engine room to housethree
emergency vehicles andwill have a 10-bedroom sleepingquarters.
Schnetler said the station willserve the areas of
Melk-bosstrand, Duinefontein, Blou-berg, Parklands, West
Beach,Sunningdale, as well as the Koe-berg nuclear power station
aspart of the power plants emer-gency plan.
The fire station also covers thesurrounding informal
settle-ments and any other area as re-quired by the fire and
rescueservice.
Given the notoriety of the R27and the road accidents that
hap-
pen there the station will alsohave a rescue vehicle to cover
in-cidents on this road, as well asthe Otto du Plessis Drive and
theN7.
The new fire station is plannedto be in operation in October
thisyear.
The use of the old fire stationbuilding which was previously
acrayfish processing factory, isstill under discussion Fby city
of-ficials, Schnetler said.
The citys property manage-ment department were hesitantto give
specifications regardingthe rest of the developmentaround the
Birkenhead Shop-ping Centre, including a retire-ment village, as
plans are still indraft with planning still underway.
My CiTi plansCity of Cape Towns media
manager, Kylie Hatton said con-struction on the MyCiTi bus
sta-tion in Melkbosstrand will com-mencewhen thewideningofOttodu
Plessis Drive is completed.
Due to many unknown servic-es this construction is
behindprogrammeandwill onlybe com-pleted by the end of the year,
shesaid.
The feeder routes will be com-pleted in October this year andbe
operational at the beginningof 2013.
Hatton added that there willnot be a non-motorised lane lead-ing
from Melkbosstrand alongthe R27. There will however be acycling
lane running along Ottodu Plessis Drive from Melk-bosstrand to the
holiday campwhich will also be completed inOctober.

Breast cancer is something that can be de-tected very early on,
but most people do nothave the money or transport to visit a
doctor,or even the knowledge that these checkupshave to occur
regularly. That is where Pink-Drive comes in.
This is what Pauline de Klerk, the head oflocal NPO Sharing
Abundant Life Together(Salt), had to sayabout
theupcomingcollabo-ration between Salt, PinkDrive and the
Stel-lenbosch nursing department on Thursday15 March at the View
Church in Table View.
A main focus of the day is to create aware-ness and to educate.
People from all areas arewelcome, but we are focusing mainly on
Ta-ble View and the surrounding areas such asDu Noon and Joe Slovo,
where men andwomen do not have the money to go to an eve-ryday
doctor. We also want to stress that thetests are not just for
women.
Breast cancer occurs also in men, just ona much smaller scale,
said De Klerk.
The examinations will take place from themorning until as late
as possible. For moreinformation on this initiative visit the
Pink-Drive website at www.pinkdrive.co.za.

Last weeks Slice of Life photo (Tyger-Burger 22 February)
showing a local mo-torcyclist lifting his two-year-old daugh-ter on
the front seat, had readers talkingabout the legality of the
matter.
After research, their claims have indeedbeen validated.
MerleLourens,media liaison for the safetyand security division
of the traffic servicesdepartment had the following to say: I
amappalled and shocked at seeing this photo.
What on earth was this man thinking!The only legal thing on this
picture is thatthe little girl is at leastwearing a helmet.
Pas-sengers and other ob-jects are not allowed tobe in the front of
the rid-er.
The National RoadTraffic Act states: Noperson or animal or
ob-ject shall be carried on amotor cycle, motor tri-cycle or motor
quadra-cycle on a public road infront of the driver there-of:
Provided that an ob-ject of a non-bulky na-ture may be so carried
ifsecurely attached to themotor cycle, motor tri-cycle or motor
quadra-cycle or placed in a suit-able carrier fitted there-on for
that purpose andcarried in such a way as
not to obstruct the drivers view or preventhis or her exercising
complete control oversuch motor cycle, motor tricycle or
motorquadracycle.
A few safety tips for lifting children on abike:
1. Always wear proper fitting helmets (rid-er and
passenger).
2. Never carry objects or persons in thefront of the rider
ashemaynot exercise prop-er control over the handlebars.
3. Ensure that you are licensed to ride theparticular class of
motorcycle.
4. Dont lift a child if they are so small thattheir feet cant
reach the foot rests; or not bigenough to hold onto the rider
tightly.
Maybe not a good idea

An application to extend the urban edge ofthe City of Cape Town
to incorporate pro-posed sustainable development along theN7 served
before the Blaauwberg Subcoun-cil recently.
According to their website WesCape is alarge scale city
development set to be imple-mented over 20 years.
It is a project by communiTgrow which is ajoint venture between
property developers Bel-landia and Pact Developers, architect
firmARG Design and Ariya Projects, a companythat offers a broad
spectrum of built environ-ment-related services.
CommuniTgrow hopes to address the needfor housing, employment,
health and economicnourishment in a sustainable manner to
previ-ously disadvantaged families with this project.
Wescape will initially provide over 200 000homes, to households
of different economic lev-els and densities to create a community
of in-tegrated neighbourhoods.
Housing will range from houses subsidisedfor families who earn
below R3 500 per monththrough to affordable free-standing homes
forfamilies earning above the R15 000 per monthlevel. These will
include three-bedroom singleresidential homes, two-bedroom
semi-detachedstarter homes, two-bedroom three-storey walk-ups and
two-bedroom six-floor apartmentbuildings.
The 3 100 hectares of land earmarked for thisdevelopment is
situated in the so-called Atlan-tis corridor and located directly
north of the ex-isting urban edge of Cape Town, directly to thewest
of the N7, east of the existing Atlantis rail-way line and south of
the Dassenberg small-holdings.
The idea is that the WesCape developmentwhich will constitute
about one third of theWestern Growth Corridor will help to link
theCentral Business District (CBD) with Atlantisintegrating them
spatially and economicallyinto the greater economy.
It is envisioned that WesCape residents willhave access to the
city by means of the existingrailway line which runs the length of
the corri-dor and could be upgraded to a commuter lineas well as
the MyCiTi bus service.
CommuniTgrow hopes a buy-in from the citywill initiate the bulk
services and other infra-structure necessary to unlock the land in
theremainder of the corridor which is only one oftwo directions in
which the city can expand.
The WesCape will incorporate a variety ofsystem strategies with
regards to energy andwater, waste disposal, food, buildings and
land-scaping with the focus being on sustainability,local food
production and recycling.
It is the hope that WesCape could help to de-densify areas like
Khayelitsha and Nyanga.

Dit is weer eens bewys: selfs in tye soosnou, waar almal hulle
rieme dun sny, hetmense nog baie om te gee. Dis ook bewysdat mense
iets wl gee, regtig wl help,hulle weet net nie altyd hoe en waar
nie.
Na aanleiding van twee berigte in Tyger-Burger verlede jaar oor
die nood by die trau-makamers van die hof vir seksuele misdry-we in
Parow, is hulle oorlaai met goedhartig-heid. Selfs groot
maatskappye het gereageer.
Di hof bedien die noordelike voorstede enonmiddellike
omstreke.
Di kamers kon Donderdag in sy heel nu-we gedaante aan die media
en borge gewysword.
Monique Strydom se organisasie, Matla aBana (a voice against
child abuse), het diprojek verlede jaar aangeneem en Tyger-Burger
se hulp ingeroep om die woord te ver-sprei. Ons is absoluut
oorweldig met oproe-pe van maatskappye, individue, groepe enskole.
Dit was moontlik om baie meer as netdie vertrekke vir die
kinderslagoffers oor tedoen. Ons kon ook die personeel, wat
daag-liks met seksueel mishandelde kindertjiesmoet werk, se kantore
opgradeer, asook dieingangsportaal. Ons kon ook kaste insit enhet n
groot televisie vir die kinders gekry,het Monique tydens die
geleentheid ges.
Dis fantasties hoe n gemeenskap konhande vat om n groot verskil
te maak.
Elke drie minute word n kind inSuid-Afrika verkrag. In 80%
vanhierdie gevalle word die grudadegepleeg deur n familielid of
iemandwat baie bekend aan die kind is. Ditgebeur ook meestal in n
plek waardiekindbeskermdenveilig behoortte voel, soos in hul
ouerhuis. Elkejaar word 14 000 mishandelde kin-dertjies direk
geraak deur die hulpen dienste van Matla a Bana. Van-jaar gaan ons
di syfer na 20 000 op-stoot, het Monique ges.
Elton van Rooyen, saakbestuur-der by di hof, het verduidelik
hoedie proses werk vandat die kinder-slagoffer se saak aangemeld
is, totdie kind na di traumakamers ge-bring word, en uiteindelik
moet ge-tuig. By di hof kan kinders via vi-deostroming in n hofsaak
getuig.Dit beteken dat mense in die hofsaaldie kind kan sien en
hoor tydens ge-tuielewering, maar die kind nieblootgestel word aan
die persoonwat hulle seergemaak het of dievreesaanjaende detail van
die hof-saak nie.
By ons voel die kind veilig teendie tyd dat sy haar getuienis
moetgee. Hier is dit n huis weg van diehuis af. Ons hanteer hulle
nie netmet respek nie, maar ook as spesi-aal. Dit verseker dat
hulle n beterkwaliteit verklaring afl wat baiehelp om die
beskuldigde aan diekaak te stel, het Van Rooyen ges.
Ronel de Jager, hoofaanklaer indie hof vir seksuele misdrywe,
het
vir Monique en die gemeenskap vir hulle by-draes bedank. Sy het
mense terselfdertyddaaraan herinner dat die kamers voortdu-rend kos
soos 2-minuut-noedels, pap, kitssopen brood nodig het vir die
slagoffertjies, so-wel as teddiebere. Elke kind kry n teddie-beer
om huis toe te vat wanneer hulle hof-saak klaar is. Comfort packs
word ook aanelke slagoffer gegee as hulle by die hof aan-meld kort
n n grudaad met hulle gepleegis. Di pakke bevat onder meer n
waslappie,seep, aanspuit-deodorant, skoon onderklereen n sanitre
doekie.
Die borge, wat Dis-Chem (R20 000), CapeTalk (R20 000), Harvey
World Travel(R10 000), Davidsons Boards, Dulux, Ford,Sanlam,
Shoprite Checkers, Audio Vision,Vloerweelde, Nampak, die Merriman
Lionsen skole soos Chester House (Durbanville)en DF Malan
(Bellville) insluit, saam metverskeie individue, het die nuutmaak
vandie traumakamers moontlik gemaak. Dieborge het in hulle
spreekbeurt elkeen hul be-wondering vir Monique en die werknemersin
die traumakamers en die hof uitgespreek.Min mense glo dat n
individu n verskilaan n oorweldigende probleem kan maak.Monique is
een van hierdie mense wat ditglo n dit bewys, het n
verteenwoordigervan Cape Talk dit opgesom..Mense wat wil voortgaan
om die trau-
makamers te ondersteun, kan MoniqueStrydom, direkteur van Matla
A Bana, kon-tak by 021 913 9107 of 083 212 9824.

Primary School hall.During the meeting members of theMelkbosstrand
Police Station will givefeedback regarding the local crime

Crime is a reality in Melkbos. We wererecently hit by a crime
wave and there is anincrease in suspicious movements and
ac-tivities in the area, said Elmien Vermeu-len, public relations
officer of the MelkbosNeighbourhood Watch (MNHW).

in strengtheningits partnership with SAPS.
We have a firm conviction that to suc-cessfully address crime
and the safety andinterests of our residents and
businesses,partnerships are crucial, Vermeulen said.
As an example the MNHW has asked localresidents to support the
ACVV Koeberg andtheir social workers in addressing the seri-ous
social and welfare problems that exist
in Melkbos.The safety of our children is also of ex-
treme importance to us and for that reasonwe work hand in hand
with SAPS to visitschools and speak to the childrenabout
initi-atives like the Smart Kids project.
The organisation also liaises closely withthe local ward
councillor Marissa Jansenvan Vuuren, the City of Cape Town and
theprovincial government.
Apart from all the projects that the NHWis involved with, we
make our voice heardon all issues affecting Melkbosstrand andour
input and advice is regularly sought andrequested. We do not
hesitate to address ne-glect and the effect of development
proposalson the safety of residents, Vermeulen ex-plained.
She urged all residents to get involved andbecome active in the
MNHW in serving thecommunity.
This is what responsive and responsibleneighbours ought to
do.

Beywer julle allereers vir die koningrykvan God en vir die wil
van God, dan sal Hyjulle ook al hierdie dinge gee.
Matteus 6:33
Pen se mag kansny soos swaardMassahisterie het verlede week in
Walla-cedene losgebars n berigte in poniekoe-rante verskyn het oor
n kind met duiwel-se magte.
Bekommerde ouers het na die betrokkeskool gehaas en aangedring
dat die kind,wat glo in n slang en selfs n vlieg kan ver-ander,
geskors word.
Die skoolhoof, wat glo ook n sangomais (volgens hoors,
natuurlik), het hardprobeer om die ouers te kalmeer en geshulle
moenie alles glo wat hul kinders snie.
Sy pleidooi het op dowe ore geval. Hoe-kom? Want die ouers is
goedgelowig. Hullehet dit immers in die koerant gelees! Danmoet dit
mos waar wees!
Die beriggewing is niks anders as onver-antwoordelike
joernalistiek nie. Sensasio-nele stories soos di mag dalk lei tot
beterverkope, maar dit is onverskoonbaar.
n Koerant is daar om sy lesers in te ligen op te voed. Snert
soos di gaan versekernie help om lesers op te voed nie.
Niemand het gesien hoe die kind in nslang verander nie. En nie
een van die ver-slaggewers het self met die kind gepraatnie. Het
enigiemand aan die arme kind ge-dink toe hulle die groot klok om
die storiegehang het?
Die pen is regtig magtiger as die swaard.Net jammer di wat die
pen as wapen ge-bruik, misbruik dit so maklik.
Nee, man, nie so nie! Alyssia Moniz (links) en Sarah

We must bike saferA few weeks ago there was a photo of twogirls
on a scooter on the N1, and today, 22February, the photo of Dads
sleeping beau-ty has left me shattered. I find this photo
ir-responsible.
As a mature person, who recently got mylearners licence for a
motorbike, and learn-ing through an academy, I have realised thisis
a huge learning curve.
I got my drivers licence in the 60s. I grewup in a motor family
with both cars andbikes, but rules have changed. Every year wehave
road safety campaigns, but they tell usnothing.
I did not know where a motorbike shouldbe on the road, why they
ride faster than thetraffic, and move up through lanes at
trafficlights, etc.
Our drivers are aggressive. Few people in-dicate where they are
turning, especially atcircles.
Mothers on the school run at 14:00 are onhand-held cellphones
(with blue tooth in thecar not used) or texting, keep me off the
roadat that time. Women by tradition are sup-posed to be safer
divers!
Lots of teenagers are bought bikes by par-ents, get a learners
licence, and ride with noprotection clothing or guidance.
What about road safety articles, in the pa-per?
The academy I am going to is the BikersafeMotorcycle Academy.

Dad, dont be short-sightedThe Slice of Life photo (Dads
sleepingbeauty, TygerBurger 22 February) of thedad on the bike with
his little daughter sleep-ing, who says I would do nothing to put
herlife in danger, refers.
Do you have that confirmation from yourfellow motorists using
the road with you aswell? My friend, as a fellow biker with a
four-year-old son who also begs to ride with hisdad sometimes, we
dont choose when acci-
dents happen or not. When it does happen,then the biker usually
comes second.
We can determine our safe style of rid-ing, but we cannot
control motorists whodrive recklessly around us. That precious
lit-tle girl will be gone forever. Please, as a fel-low biker, dont
be so short-sighted. Bikingis inherently dangerous ...

nothing to put her lifein danger. Doesnt he realise that what he
isdoing, is putting his child in danger? Hemight think hes the
greatest motorcyclist onthe road, but it just takes one nudge,
bump,etc. A person has less chance to survive on
a motorbike than in a car.Is this allowed on a motorbike to have
a

anything? I would sug-gest Mr Jason Bulterman stops this dange-rous

Thanks foryour graceI am writing a letter of thanks to all
themotorists and motorbike riders whoshowed me the greatest grace
and mercyever imagined.
On Sunday when I was on my way toStellenbosch I mistakenly took
the wronglane of oncoming cars at the most seriouscrossing of
all.
I turned off to Paarl in the lane of threelanes of oncoming
cars.
I have no excuse as to my wrongdoingand deserved anger from all
the people atthat point there.
I want to take the opportunity to thankall the motorists and
motorcyclists fortheir fantastic patience they showed to getme out
of my dilemma.
There was not one person who shoutedor hooted at me, although I
was totallywrong and deserved your wrath.
All I want to say is thank you so muchfor showing that thereare
still peoplewitha sincere desire to help in time of need.
I pray that I will show others the samelesson you have taught
me.
A GRATEFUL FRIENDDurbanville
Regarding the noise pollution men-tioned recently in
TygerBurger, Iwish to bring the following to the at-tention of my
fellow citizens.
Noise nuisance in the form ofloud music, noisy animals,
rowdyvehicles, etc. is prohibited in termsof paragraph 5 of the
Provincial Ga-zette 5309, dated 20 November 1998.
Law enforcement can be phonedon 021 596 1999 to lay a
complaint.
I have done so on numerous occa-sions in the past.
I have found that the law enforce-ment officers are efficient
and adopta no nonsense approach.
My area has quietened down sig-nificantly and now I can sleep
atnight.

The City of Cape Town is callingon the public to comment on
itsdraft Tall Buildings Policy,whichwill provideguidancedur-ing the
early phases of the designand planning process for tallbuildings in
Cape Town.
The City CBD is currently the on-ly area within the city that
has a de-fined height limit of 60m, while oth-er areas throughout
the city aremainly defined by general zoningregulations which are
often outdat-ed.
The Tall Buildings Policy seeksto promote responsible and
sustain-
able growth, make positive contri-butions to place-making, and
en-hance the overall cityscape by en-suring the development of
well-integrated tall buildings inappropriate locations, said
theCitys mayoral committee memberfor economic, environmental
andspatial planning, Belinda Walker.
Tall buildings can be defined asbuildings that:.Would be
significantly higher
than their neighbours;.Would need a height departure
under the zoning regulations;.Will have a significant impact
on the skyline;
. Are two timeshigher than theirwidth; and. Require special
technologies
for access (eg elevators).The draft policy sets out in
simple
language the necessary informa-tion or submission material
neededto effectively evaluate proposals.
On a more technical level, it alsoprovides a draft of the
best-practicedesign guidelines for tall buildingsthat will provide
developers and as-sessors with more detailed guid-ance during the
design and applica-tion processes.
The City acknowledges that tall-er buildings are a part of
Cape
Towns future growth, and thatcareful consideration is required
intermsof their designand suitabilitywithin Cape Towns context. If
de-veloped with sensitivity to the envi-ronment and with awareness
of theurban context, tall buildings canserve as beacons of urban
improve-ment, Walker said.
A workshop will be held for inter-ested groups and professional
bod-ies to allow the City to obtain spe-cialist support for and
input intothe policy and its utilisation.
It is expected that the final draftTall Buildings Policy will be
sub-mitted for policy approval to the ex-
ecutive mayor in June.The draft policy is available for
review from tomorrow at the Citys24 subcouncil offices;
municipal li-braries; and planning district offic-es; as well as at
www.cape-town.gov.za/haveyoursay.
Interested groups and membersof the public are requested to
pleasesubmit their comments in writingbetween 1 and 31 March via:.
Post to PO Box 4511, Cape Town
8000; att: Liezel Kruger-Fountain.. Fax to 021 421 6209.

Haweloses kom van ver om tedeel in die barmhartigheid vandie
moeder van Goodwood.
Daar waar mense neergetrekword deur moedeloosheid, hongergaan
slaap en wonder waar hullevolgende maaltyd vandaan sal kom,daar
word Merelien Badenhorst senaam onder mekaar gefluister.
Waar mense se siele uitroep virverandering en dit vir hulle voel
ofdie las van die lewe ondraaglikword, daar word Merelien
Baden-horst se naam weer eens gehoor.
Die barmhartigheid van Mere-lien (42) ken geen perke nie.
Elke Woensdagaand vir die afge-lope vier jaar gee sy kos vir tot
150dakloses. Deesdae is daar tot n pas-toor wat die siel voed met
die Woordvan die Here.
Hulle is eerlike mense, s Mere-lien sonder om twee keer te dink.
Syregverdig die stelling deur tientallename te noem en hul stories
te ver-tel as voorbeelde.
Mense kyk hulle skeef aan, maarek respekteer hulle. Ek is nie
daarom hulle te judge nie!
Vier jaar gelede het Merelien be-sluit dat sy nie net n
bystander kanwees, terwyl sy sien hoe die straat-mense om haar ly
nie. Toe besef sydat dit haar roeping is om hulle tehelp.
Sy gaan voort, Sweets is nou aloorlede, maar hy het begin om
tevra, ai my moeder, is daar niks omte eet nie? Ek het toe maar my
eiegeld gebruik om vir hulle vetkoekeof fishcakes te koop. Die
resultaat
was dat ek nooit met geld by diehuis gekom het nie, en dan was
daarmoeilikheid!
Stadig maar seker het die naamvan moeder versprei en nou helpsy
baie meer as n honderd mense.
Hulle kom van Bellville, Parow,Plattekloof net vir n stukkiekos
...
Sy het ook al vele aande mensevan die straat gehelp met verblyf
enkleinwerkies,maarhaar gesin Pe-trus (41) en dogter Bianca (13)
gee
nie om om hul vrou en ma met an-der te deel nie.
Petrus verduidelik: Ek is baiebly en respekteer haar vir al
diegoed wat sy doen. Bianca s haarma is eintlik haar rolmodel.
Sy wil eendag Merelien se voor-beeld volg deur ander te help,
maarnie net met kos nie.
Ek wil eendag vir mense huisegee! lag sy.
Di moeder, berader en voor-siener, gee elke week honderde
ran-
de uit en offer ure van haar tyd opom ander te help, maar sy
doen ditnie alleen nie.
Petrus en Bianca help waar hulkan en Life Changing Ministry
inRuyterwacht se pastoor, Paul Ja-cobs, en sy vrou, Salom, asook
an-der, kom help elke Woensdag.
Ek kan sien daar is n honger virdie Woord van die Here, s
Mere-lien.
Baie van die mense kom nie netvir die kos nie, maar vir die
Woord.Die handjievol Samaritane kan
egter nie alles alleen doen nie, sohulle vra die gemeenskap se
hulp.
Skakel gerus vir Merelien by074 685 5764 vir bydraes.
Sy sluit af: Dis nie reg dat hulleso sonder komberse in die
straatmoet slaap nie. Ek het vir een siekmeisie Bianca se matras
gegee. Bi-anca kan maar op die grond slaap,want sys in n huis en
daardie mei-sie is sieklik.
Sy voed dakloses se mae n siele

The City of Cape Towns Fire andRescue Services re-introducedfire
and smoke detection camer-as at the Goodwood Fire and Res-cue
Command and Control Cen-tre recently and provided a dem-onstration
of the high-techequipment last week Thursday.
According to mayoral committeemember for safety and security,
JPSmith, the detection system wascancelled three years ago due
tovarious national regulations.
It threw new spanners into theworks and strangled us with
regula-
tions, because of over-regulation.Whilst that may be necessary,
it isalso highly restrictive, especiallyonce you start dealing with
private-public partnerships, he explains.
The detection programme was,and is now again, run by
externalprivate donations.
We had to take the motion tocouncil and this whole process
canmake private donors think twiceabout donating to government.
However, three years down theline and the majority of the
CapeTown district is finally being moni-tored again.
Smith continues: The camerasystem forms an integral part of
fire
and rescue services commitmentto respond to fires as quickly as
pos-sible. We constantly explore waysin which technology can make
usmore efficient.
The camera system is designed todetect and plot the location of
fireand smoke within a radius of fivekilometres from the cameras
loca-tion.
The information is then transmit-ted to the commandandcontrol
cen-tre in Goodwood, where the loca-tion is plotted on a map and
the nec-essary vehicles dispatched to theincident.
The system increases efficiencyand speed and also serves the
pur-
pose of having a record on file ofwhat happened.
An added feature will assist dis-patched emergency personnel to
es-tablish the quickest route to the lo-cation by the use of
satellite image-ry.
This early warning detection sys-tem can also in many occasions
re-sult in the fire brigade being dis-patched before a call has
even beenlodged.
Smith emphasises, however, thatthey still rely on the community
tophone them in case of an emergen-cy.
Presently there are six cameras,which cost about R250 000
each.
They are located at the militarybase in Khayelitsha, Cape Town
In-ternational Airport, TygerbergHills, Papegaaiberg, the V&A
Wa-terfront and Muizenberg.
It is planned to expand the systemwith five more cameras, which
willbe placed at Helderberg, Conter-manskloof, Bottelary (to
coverKraaifontein and surrounds),Kings Blockhouse and Hout Bay.
For these to be installed, Smithsays he would have to raise
betweenR1,2 and R1,5 million.
He is quite confident that he willbe able to do this and
foresees most,if not all, of these cameras to be in-stalled in the
next few months.
High tech cameras see fire early

Sarah Theron is vr vroue. Dis die eending waaroor daar absoluut
geen twyfelis nie as jy met di sanger gesels wat inParow-Noord
bly.
Waar anders moet ek dan side? vra sy,Eks dan in n vrou se
lyf!
Dis ook duidelik dat sy nie n bra-verbran-der is nie. Sys nie
aggressief oor vroueregtenie. Haar liedjies en optredes getuig
eerdervan haar bewondering vir vroue se innerli-ke krag, dat vroue
nie altyd besef hoeveelmag hulle het nie.
Dis dan ook presies waaroor haar jongsteCD en vertonings, Storm
in n D-Cup, gaan.Dit het die keurders van die Ghoema-Afri-kaanse
musiektoekennings soveel bendrukdat Sarah sommer vanjaar in drie
katego-rie vir n Ghoema benoem is. Storm in nD-Cup het haar
benoemings vir die bestevroulike kunstenaar, album van die jaar,
enbeste country-album besorg.
Die album Storm in n D-Cup, het uit haarliedjie met dieselfde
titel voortgevloei. Ditgaan oor wat mense dink dit gaan
vroulikekurwes en die krag daaragter. Dis soortvann vlaglied vir
meisies. Ek wil s dis okay omte wees soos ons is. Vroue het baie
krag enhulle moet dit reg gebruik.
Sy s vroue word maklik gegroepeer, nienet deur mans nie, maar
deur almal. nMooi, maer, blonde vrou word maklik as npoppie
getipeer, maar jy het moontlik metn powerhouse te doen. Ander lyk
weersterk en mense glo dikwels hulle het nie hulpnodig nie, al vra
hulle dit, s sy nadenkend.
Sarah s sy was baie verras, en baie ge-vlei oor al drie
benoemings, maar dis veraldie ene vir die beste country-album, wat
symet n seer hart soek. Sys die enigste vrouop di nominasielys.
Die Kaap is darem maar haar plek. Sarahwas in die Laerskool
Parow-Oos en later indie Horskool Tygerberg. Sy het ook in
dieTygerberg-kinderkoor gesing, wat haar toeal vir die lewe as n
vermaaklikheidstervoorberei het.
Haar hart hang aan die country-benoe-ming omdat sy glo sy sing
stewig country,met n sterk blues- en gospel-agtergrond. Syvoel
gemaklik met countrymusiek. Count-ry pas my. Jy kan n storie oor
absoluut enig-iets vertel en iewers sal daar iemand weeswat daarmee
vereenselwig, veral as jy ditmet meegevoel en empatie vertel. Sy
svoor n optrede trippel sy maar n bietjierond, maar as sy eers op
die verhoog is, isdit asof haar energie vrygestel word. Menses
dikwels ek begin gloei, en dit voel ook so.Ek is dan baie bewus van
my krag as vrou..Mense kan vir Sarah Theron stem om
haar kanse om n Ghoema in te palm, veralvir Storm in n D-Cup as
beste country-al-bum, aansienlik te vergroot. Stuur n SMSna 41808
met die boodskap O5 (die letter O).SMSe kos R1,50. Besoek

Sarah is vrvroue enbewonderhul krag
