MOTORBARSDEUROMHEINING:MAN (70) BESEER

OndersteboopsyneusJANINE VAN DER RIET

’n Bejaarde man het Sondag-middag die Hoofstraat in On-rus oorgesteek en in ’n woon-kompleks vasgery, waarna symotor vooroor geslaan enstert-in-die-lug teen ’nmuur telande gekom het.

Die 70-jarige motoris het na be-wering by die Onrus Handelsposinkopies gedoen en ongeveer16:45 uit die parkeerarea gery.

In plaas daarvan om links ofregs indieHoofstraat tedraai,hethy lynreg oor die pad geskiet endwarsdeurdieomheiningvandieOnrus Close-woonkompleks ge-

ploeg.Sy Hyundai-sedanmotor het

teen die motorhuis van een vandiewooneenhede indiekompleksin ’n vertikale posisie op sy neustot stilstand gekom.

Magda duToit, wat in die boon-stewoonstel bly, sê sy enhaar ge-sin het in die sitkamer gesit toehulle meteens ’n harde slag hoor.

“Ons het uitgekyk, maar niksin die pad gewaar nie. Toe ons nalinks kyk, sien ons die voertuigbinnediekompleksteendiemuurvan ’n motorhuis, met sy stert indie lug.Daarwaseenpersoonbin-ne die voertuig.”

Ann Marais, nog ’n inwoner,het die slag gehoor maar nie die

ongelukgesiennie. Sy sêbaiemo-toristehet stilgehouenvinnigdieowerhede in kennis gestel.

Die bestuurder was sowat 35minute lank in die voertuig vas-gekeer. Beamptes moes eers dievoertuig weer op sy wiele kryvoordat hy uit die voertuig gesnykon word.

Die eerste ambulans was om17:05 op die toneel, waarna diebrandweer enEMRookopgedaaghet.

DuToitsê toedieongelukplaas-vind,was daar gelukkig geenkin-ders wat op die grasperke binnedie kompleks gespeel het nie.

Ander ooggetuies beweer diebejaarde man het moontlik tyde-

lik sy bewussyn verloor en so-doende die ongeluk veroorsaak.

Die bestuurder is deur ambu-lanspersoneel van EMR na dieHermanus-hospitaal gebring. Hyverkeer in ’n ernstige, maar sta-biele toestand.

Rassismeklagteabsurdenlasterlik, sê skoolhoofJANINE VAN DER RIET

“Hierdie is die ergste vorm van naam-skending en laster denkbaar!”

So sê Barry Cilliers, skoolhoof van Laer-skool Hermanus, ná ’n dispuut met die mavan ’n 10-jarige seun wat ’n rasse-vete op diesosiale netwerkFacebook ontketen het. Daaris ook oor die aangeleentheid berig in tweeponiekoerante.

’n Blanke ma van ’n graad vyf kleurling-seun, beskuldig Cilliers van rassisme nadathaar seun nie in dié skool toegelaat is nie.Die ma en seun se name is bekend aan dieHermanus Times, maar om die identiteit vandie minderjarige te beskerm, word die nameweerhou.

Op verskeie blaaie op Facebook word dieskoolhoof onder meer uitgekryt as ’n rassisen leuenaar.

Die ma beweer sy het op 17 Januarie saammet haar (blanke) dogter by die skool aange-kom om navraag te doen oor toelating virhaarseun.“Ekheteersop14Januariegehoordie maatskappy waarvoor ek gewerk het,maaktoeenonsmoes inderhaasvandieKaapna Hermanus verhuis. Dit is die rede vir dielaat aansoek.”

Sy sê Cilliers en die sekretaresse het haarversekerdatdaarplekvirhaarseunsalwees,en die familie moet net haar seun se oorpla-singskaart van sy vorige skool in Gordons-baai, asook sy geboortesertifikaat, aan Laer-skool Hermanus gee vir toelating.

“Ons is die Maandag terug skool toe en toedie hoof uit sy kantoor kom, het hy my nieeers gegroet nie. Terug in sy kantoor het diesekretaresse met hom gaan praat, maar syhet aan my gesê die hoof sê daar is geen pleknie. Ek het gevra om die hoof self te sien,waarnasyweermetsydagboeknasykantooris.Toesyterugkomhetsyweereensverduide-lik dat die hoof sê hy kan my nie help nie.”

Die ma beweer ná sy aan die sekretaresseverduidelik het dat geen skool ’n kind magweier nie, is sy weer terug na die hoof se kan-toor. “Die sekretaresse het uitgekom, weergesê die hoof kan my nie sien nie, en gesê ekkanmykindby ’nkleurlingskool, soosHaws-ton Primêr, inskryf.”

Cilliers ontken dat hy enige kontak met diema gehad het.

“Die enigste kommunikasie was ’n skrifte-like brief wat aan haar gestuur is om haarin kennis te stel dat haar kind vierde op diewaglys vir die graad vyf Afrikaanse klas is.”

Dieskoolseregister,wataandieHermanusTimes oorhandig is, wys dat die ma eers op23 Januarie ’n aansoekvorm aangevra het.“Sy was nie self by die skool nie, maar het

iemand gestuur om die aansoekvorm na-menshaaropte tel,” sêCilliers. “Op27Janua-rie het die ma die vorm ingehandig, maar dieskool was reeds vol.”

Volgensdie register isdaarnogdrieblankeleerlingenádiemaseseunwiese laataansoe-keookafgekeurisweensdie feitdatdieklassevol is. Die sekretaresse by die skool ontkenook ten sterkste dat sy die ma na HawstonPrimêr verwys het.

Diemabeweer sowat ’nweekgelede is tweegraad vyf-leerders in die Afrikaanse klas in-geskryf. “Hoe kan die skool vol wees as daardan twee weke ná my aansoek twee wit kin-ders ingeskryf is?”

Cilliers verwys weer na die register as be-wys dat geen leerlinge in dieselfde klas nádie seun se aansoek in die skool toegelaat isnie.

Cilliers sê die samestelling van LaerskoolHermanus word baie goed verteenwoordigmet alle kultuurgroepe. Hy stuur elke Don-derdagdienamevanleerlingewatopdiewag-lys is, soos gespesifiseer deur die onderwys-department se beleid, deur na dié depart-ment.

Volgens Cilliers is die seun se naam ookdeurgestuur. Die departement kyk dan waarandershulledie leerlingekanakkommodeer.

“Dit is ’n illusie dat ons in die verlede leefmet apartheidsdrome. Dit is absurd en las-terlik.”

Intussensêdiemadathaarseunbyvriendein Gordonsbaai bly, waar hy steeds skool-gaan. Hy is emosioneel onstabiel, sê sy. “ElkeSondag wanneer die kind moet teruggaanGordonsbaai toe, is dit ’n tranedal en hy voelverwerp.”

Die tegnologieklas en wetenskapklas byLaerskool Hermanus word tans as ekstraklaskamers gebruik.

“Die skool is ’n model vir enige anderskool. Die ouers van die skool het reeds tienklaskamers, ’n skoolsaal en ander fasiliteitegebou, plus 11 ekstra onderwysers aangestel,juis sodat ons meer leerlinge kan akkomo-deer en toegang kan bied tot puik onderrig,”sê Cilliers.

Hy sê voorts dit blyk dat daar ander magteagter die skerms is “wat hierdie lasterlikestorie dryf”.

Paddy Attwell, direkteur: kommunikasievandieWes-KaapseOnderwysdepartment sêhulle is bewus van die saak.

“Ons bevestig dat die skool vol is en datdie kind vierde op die waglys is. Ons weetdat die ouer onlangs na Hermanus verhuishet enasgevolghiervankonsyeers inJanua-rie aansoek doen.”

Attwell sê verder dat die skool die aanty-gings van rassisme ten sterkste ontken.

Amphitheatreconcept scrappedCILENE BEKKER

The amphitheatre concept at Piet seBos at Grotto beach, which had Voël-klip residents and homeowners hotunder the collar, is no longer on thecards.

According to a statement released bythe Overstrand Municipality on Tues-day, ‘the amphitheatre concept will notbe entertained further’.

At the public meeting on 18 Januarytodiscuss thedevelopmentproposals forGrotto beach, which included a doublestorey restaurant and an amphitheatre,the vast majority of the attendees werenot supportive of the proposed amphi-theatre, as reported in the article ‘NO!to Grotto amphitheatre’ published in the23/01/2014 issue of Hermanus Times.

People who reside around Kirsten-bosch in Cape Town highlighted exces-sive noise pollution from the outdoortheatre. Also, should classical musicconcerts be held, the music will not beaudible due to the noise generated bywave action.

On consideration of these viewpoints,the municipality says in its release thatit is clear from the first hand experienceof those who live in close proximity toan amphitheatre elsewhere, that theproposed amphitheatre will not add val-ue to the residents and/or the communi-ty.

As for the proposed double storey res-taurant on the footprint of the old Nau-tilus (that burnt downyears ago) thema-jority of attendees had felt that the siteof the existing eatery, Dutchies, shouldbe upgraded to fulfil the function of arestaurant and that there would be noneed for the oldNautilus to be resurrect-ed.

The municipality, however, says theproposed restaurant and kiosk facilitieswill be established on the old Nautilussite, but that the structure will be down-scaled in terms of height to a flat roofstructure and elevated on stilts to makeprovision for possible erosion activi-ties.

They add that this proposed activitydoes not require a Basic Assessment Re-port (BAR), since it commenced before1998 and this aspect was clarified withthe Department of Environmental Af-

fairs and Development Planning.Neil Hoogenhout, one of the conven-

ors of the Grotto Beach Action Group(GAG)sayshe is “extremelypleased thatthe amphitheatre concept will not be en-tertained further and I am sure all thesupporters of our Action Group and at-tendees of the 18 January meeting willfeel the same. We will now get legal ad-vice as to what paperwork and notifica-tions are required to ensure that thisidea cannot be resurrected sometime inthe future”.

As for the restaurant site, he says: “Mypersonal view is that the overwhelmingopinion at the 18 January meeting wasthat the restaurant should be on the ex-isting Dutchies site and not on the oldNautilus site. I think the view was ex-pressed at the meeting that it is indeeddisturbing that the Overstrand Munici-pality intends relying on the fact thatthe old restaurant was on the site beforethe laws were changed. They have theperfect opportunity to move the build-ings back to the setback lines prescribedby the new laws. I am sure this subjectwill be further investigated by some ofthe 18 January attendees. As for my per-sonal view: I cannot imagine how terri-ble a restaurant on stiltswill look at thatlocation.”

With regards to the envisaged rehabil-itation of the wetland and upgrading ofthe picnic area, of which the attendeeswere in favour, the municipality con-firms that this will still form part of theprocess. The picnic area (where the am-phitheatre was planned) will be land-scaped with shaded facilities and uti-lized as a picnic and braai area.

Asked what the next step is now, themunicipality responded that the BARwill be amended and include plans re-flecting the amendments and will bemade available on the Overstrand web-site. All registered parties will be noti-fied in the prescribed manner as deter-mined by legislation,whichwill includea comment period.

The final BAR, once the latter publicparticipation process has been final-ised, will be submitted to the Depart-ment of Environmental Affairs and De-velopment Planning for consideration.All documentation of the public partici-pation process will form part of the finalBAR, said the municipality.

Daar word nog afrondingswerk aan die nuweAVBOB-gebou gedoen en van die meubels is nogin hul plastiekomhulsels, maar in haar kantoor isTheresa Maree al druk aan die werk. Haar man,Lukas, het ook sommer self sy moue opgerol enhand bygesit om die opknapping van die gebou tevoltooi.

“Ons is baie opgewonde oor die nuwe perseel,”sê Theresa van die ou vissermanshuisie inRoyalstraat wat nou spog met ’n splinternuwebaadjie. Daar is onder meer ’n ruim ontvangsarea,verskeie kantore, ’n badkamer enbesigtigingskamer. As die nuwe agent van AVBOBHermanus, woon die Marees ook op die perseel,wat beteken dat hulle 24-uur ’n dag beskikbaar is.

AVBOB is landswyd bekend asbegrafnisondernemers, maar eintlik is hulle jou een-stop onderneming wat gespesialiseerdebegrafnisversekeringspolisse en -dienste aanbiedvanuit 156 agentskappe in Suid-Afrika en Namibië.Theresa is al deel van AVBOB sedert 1996, en hetAVBOB oor die jare verteenwoordig in Edenvale,Pietermaritzburg, Pretoria en Durban, voordat sy enLukas onlangs na Hermanus verhuis het om dienuwe tak te bestuur.

“Ons het nog altyd van die Kaap gehou,” sêTheresa, “en ek het altyd gedink ons sal eendag inAgulhas aftree. Maar nou is ons hier in Hermanus.”

“Naasbestaandes is dikwels diep bedroef en in ’ntoestand van skok, en ons poog om hulle by testaan en te help sodat hulle nie nog hoef te sukkelmet al die praktiese oorwegings en bekommernissewat met die afsterwe van ’n geliefde gepaard gaannie.”

Theresa sê sy voel saam met haar kliënte, veraldiegene wat ’n kind aan die dood moes afstaan.“Dis gewoonlik vir my die heel ergste. As iemandoud was, en veral as iemand lank siek was, is diedood soms ’n verligting want dit beteken die lydingis verby. ’n Skielike dood, soos in die geval van ’nongeluk of ’n hartaanval, is moeiliker virnaasbestaandes om te aanvaar.

“Mense ervaar die dood en beleef hartseer opverskillende maniere, maar mens moet altydsimpatie en empatie hê.

“En soms is daar selfs ’n tikkie humor,” voeg syby. “Die dood is deel van die lewe en ons loop niealtyd met lang gesigte rond nie.”

Court todecideon lastresidentsatDeMondHEDDA MITTNER

Only three resi-dents are still liv-ing in the oncepopular De MondCaravan Park inVoëlklip, wheregenerations of thesame family hadspent idyllic holi-days formorethanhalf a century.

The park now re-sembles a ghosttown after the morethan 200 members ofthe De Mond Cara-van Park Association (DMCPA) were forcedto leave the premises more than a year ago –with the exception of five individuals.

Now Elizabeth Theron (81), Keith Hamp-shire (63) and Hanna Auret (66) are the onlyones left of the five residents who were ex-empt from the eviction order handed downbytheWesternCapeHighCourton10Decem-ber 2012.

Unlike the other members, who only spentholidays at the camp and who own otherproperty, they claim to be living there on apermanentbasisandthat theyhavenowhereelse to go.

Theron, Hampshire and Auret wereservedwithyet another evictionorder inOc-tober 2013 and according to Desmond Lakey,seniormanagerfor legalservicesat theOver-strand Municipality, the matter is on the un-opposed High Court roll of 28 February.

This latest development comes after theOverstrandMunicipality,whoownsthelandon which the park is situated, decided notto renew their lease with the DMCPA, whichexpired on 29 February 2012.

Following a protracted court battle, mem-bers of the DMCPA were given only 11 days,until 21December 2012, to vacate the premis-es and another three months after that dur-ing which they were allowed to gain accessfor the purpose of removing their caravansand Plettenberg-style homes which they haderected on their stands over the years.

Several members sold these structures,along with furniture and other belongings,

at anauction inFeb-ruary 2013 to recoupsome of the costs,but most of themwere dissatisfiedwith the bidsachieved, whichthey considered tobe only a fraction ofthe real value.

Others took whatthey could removethemselvesandsim-ply left the rest be-hind. The camp isstill strewn withrubble and dilapi-dated structures.

“There was no or-der for compensation of members of the DM-CPA as the lease allowed them only to erectmovable structures and compelled them toremove themon termination of the lease andalso these structures did not improve theland,” says Lakey.

The municipality intends to develop thesite as a public resort in accordance with therestrictive condition contained in the origi-nal Crown Grant of 1942, which states thatthe land may not be sold and may only beused for resort recreational purposes.

“Public resorts such as camping and cara-van parks are usually utilised on a seasonalbasis forarelativelyshortperiodeachyear,”says Stephen Müller, director of infrastruc-tureandplanningatOverstrandMunicipali-ty.

“As a result they are often not financiallyviable and do not represent optimal utilisa-tion of scarce resources.”

Müller says if, however, facilities were tobe provided to accommodate large tourist orconference groups throughout the year, oc-cupancy rates may be increased by a consid-erablemargin,holdingmanypositiveadvan-tages for the broader local community. Hesays thatwhencombined, the landunderdis-cussion presents an excellent opportunityfor this type of development.

AccordingtoRiaanKuchar, seniormanag-er: town planning and property administra-tion, themunicipality is finalisingthetenderdocuments and the tender will be advertisedbefore the end of this month.

It is in this modest Plettenbergstyle home in the now deserted De Mond Caravan Park that81yearold Elizabeth Theron awaits her fate. She has lived here for 17 years and, being dependent on a state pension, she claims to have nowhere else to go. PHOTOS: HEDDA MITTNER

The park has been littered with rubble andhas not been cleaned since the members ofthe De Mond Caravan Park Association wereevicted more than a year ago.

Dieklagwasdatdie joernalisniedie inlig-tinggebruikhetwatbeskikbaargestel isnie(waarin gesê word – reg of verkeerd – datdie toerusting aan die fonds behoort, en nieaan Tiaan nie), dat die koerant die klaer niegenoegtydgegeehetombehoorlikkommen-taar te lewer nie, en dat die storie feitelikverkeerd is.

Die ombudsman, Johan Retief, het gesêdat die saak tans voor die hof is. “Ek gaan(en kan/mag) daarom nie enige uitspraaklewer oor wie die wettige eienaar van diegoedere is nie – dit is die hof se taak; ek isook nie geïnteresseerd in die vraag of die

administrateur (of die fonds se administra-teurs) dalk met hul optrede gefouteer hetnie. Ek gaan my beslis nie op die hof se ter-rein begewe nie.

“My enigste belangstelling in hierdiesaak is indievraagofdiekoerantetiesberighet (lees: opgetree het in ooreenstemmingmet die letter en gees van die perskode).”

Hy het beklemtoon dat daar ’n ander me-ning was as ons s’n oor die eienaarskap vandie artikels.

Die administrateur het hierdie ander me-ning aan ons oorgedra, betyds vir publika-sie – en die publiek het die reg gehad omoor hierdie kernaspek ingelig te word.

“Die feit dat die koerant nie oor boge-noemde berig het nie, was daarom onbilliken het die potensiaal gehad om die admini-strateur en die fonds onnodige skade te be-rokken.”

Retief het dit egter betreur dat die klaernie sy/haar weg oop gesien het om betydsop verdere vrae te reageer nie.

Hy het ook die Hermanus Times versoekom die klaer die geleentheid te gee om sy/haar mening te gee in die vorm van ’n briefaan die redakteur (indien so verkies). (Siendie brief op bl. 10.)

Three housebreaking and theft caseswere opened in the last two weekswhere goods worth thousands ofrands were stolen while the ownersof the houses were asleep.According to lieutenantFadila Sep-

klip, the familywent to bed at aroundmidnight. A small window was openthroughwhich the suspect gained en-try and then looked through the en-tire house.In the study, next to the main bed-

room, the suspect took various itemsof expensive men’s clothing andshoes, cash, credit cards and a laptop.“The house was in chaos when I

woke up the next morning. The sus-pect(s) searched through everything,but they only took expensive goodsand did not take any food or alcohol,”said the owner, who does not want tobe named.Some of the stolen items were later

recovered high up on the mountainin Voëlklip.On 31 January, the owners of a

WINNING CHEESERY:Klein River Cheesery nearStanford was recentlynamed the winner of thethird annual WoolworthsCheese Maker’s Challenge. Here the proudowners Riaan and ShellyLourens and their daughter, Sandy, stand next toKlein River’s cheese maker Jacko van Beulen holding a wheel of the winning cheese, the OakSmoked Stanford. This small familyrun cheesery on the banks of theKlein River is no stranger to accolades, and they have been producingmulti awardwinning Gruyere for many years. The milk for their cheesescomes from three neighbouring farms where the herds graze on the valley’s fertile pastures. The Oak Smoked Stanford is matured for three tofour months and cold smoked, with the addition of shavings from oakwine barrels giving the cheese its unique flavour. Woolworths introducedthe Cheese Maker’s Challenge in 2011 to encourage small, local cheeseries to create new and exciting cheeses.

Popupweddingsaves thedayHEDDA MITTNER

Quick thinking, a positive atti-tude and swift action were need-ed to save the day when a couplecancelled their wedding onlyhours before the fairytale eventwas to take place in Hermanus.

Karen Wurbach from Best Daysevent planning and co-ordination,says she received a call on Saturdaymorning from the not-so-lucky cou-ple, who lives in Gauteng, to canceltheir beach-themed wedding sched-uled for 15:30 that afternoonatKam-mabaai. The ceremonywas tobe fol-lowed by a reception at the Class-room restaurant, where Kevin andSumien Warwick were to serve the32 confirmed wedding guests athree-course dinner.

Karen had everything ready,from the decor and flowers to theprintedmenusand theDJ, chefAnlivan Vuuren had already baked thewedding cake and Kevin and histeam were about to start preppingall the food when they received thenews.

“The tables had been set, we hadorganisedthewaitersandhadtakenno bookings for lunch or dinner be-cause thevenuehadbeenbookedex-clusively for the wedding recep-tion,” says Sumien.

“At first we did not know how toreactbecause it feltunreal. Inall theyears that Kevin has done cateringfor weddings, this has never hap-pened. All we’d received was a de-posit from the bride.”

“At firstwewere justdevastated,”says Karen. “Kevin was about to lethis staff go and close up for theevening, but then I thought: let’s

rather dó something!”After consulting with the War-

wicks they decided to go aheadwiththe reception and set about invitingpeople to enjoy the dinner at a dis-counted rate in order to recoupsome of their losses.

“Within a few hours we managedto round up more than double theamount of people than those whoweretohaveattendedthe(real)wed-ding,” says Karen cheerfully. Thepop-up wedding proved immenselypopular and she says they had “agreat party”.

“We made up two scarecrowsfrom the Hemel-en-Aarde GardenMarket to look like the bride andgroom and they were seated at thebridal table next to the weddingcake,” says Sumien.

“The DJ played the weddingmarchandKevin,actingasMC,pro-posed a toast to the couple in theirabsence. The ‘wedding guests’chimed in with ‘...for they are jollygood fellows’, the dance floor wasopened by Karen in the arms of the

‘groom’ and at the end there werethe usual thank you speeches.”

Sumien says the guests partieduntil late and had an unforgettablyfun evening.

Says Karen: “Thanks to everyonepulling together, including DieterLauff from Function Hire who do-nated all the glassware and DJJamesPeiserwhokept everyoneen-tertained, we were able to turn amost unfortunate situation intoHermanus’s first pop-up wedding.”

The illfated ‘bride’ and ‘groom’were toasted in their absence anda great wedding party was enjoyed by all.

Unity in diversity

If the letters and SMSes sent to the Hermanus Times in the last two weeks areanything to go by, the main topic of conversation is currently the proposed retailshopping mall in Sandbaai.The fact that opinion is divided is not

necessarilly a bad thing, as it brings different aspects of the development andits possible effects, both negative andpositive, to the fore.It is essential that we as residents take

all these differing opinions into consideration so that we can be proactive instead of reactive, as is so often the case.Any development, especially of this

magnitude, has an impact on our town,and consequences that have to beanticipated.The level of response so far is a clear

indication that as residents we all caredeeply for our town, and the preservation of its future as both a prime touristdestination and a place we feel privileged to call home.

DEE BACKOVERSTRAND HOSPICE FUNDING

Arguments for and against shopping mallWhen it comes to shopping malls, Her-manus residents have diverse opinions,none of which are, of course, irrelevant.

There are two broad schools of thought:“for” and “against”.

Both schools have compelling argu-ments to support their particular stand-point.

In August 2012 I took a fairly strongstance against the Whale Coast VillageMall (the mall) which was followed upwith an article in HT on 12 December 2012.My argument, which forms the basis ofthose ‘against’, was:

) Creates additional supply of shoppingspace.

) Consumer base essentially remainsstatic.

)Doesnotnecessarilycreateadditionallong term jobs.

) Existing “cake” sliced in smaller slic-es.

) Viability of old and existing business-es being compromised.

) Attracting down-market businessesto the CBD.

For every 10 m² (real number is 3 m²) ofshopping space built outside the CBD, theCBD will lose 1 m² – therefore the CBDstands to lose some 2 870 m²,– creating avacuum of surplus space. We have alreadyseen a move of the CBD towards the devel-opments on the eastern boundary of theCBD. The vacuum being filled by down-market establishments.

There are many case studies where thiswas evident, for example George, Pletten-berg Bay, Rustenburg, Somerset West etc.

It is a pity that we have waited two yearsto wake up at the eleventh hour about thereality of the mall.

Things have also changed since 2012 andthe National Development Plan was intro-duced to address poverty, unemploymentand inequality.

The Overstrand has a population ofsome 84 000 people, 47 000 of whom live inthe greater Hermanus area. Officially theunemployment rate is 23% (my guess, itis hugely understated), but among theyouth, which makes up more than 25% ofthe population, it is 35%.

From an income perspective more than67% of the population earns less thanR6 400 per month and some 52% less thanR3 200, of which 16% have no income. Theaverage per capita income is aroundR2 200. With negative savings this makesthe Overstrand a very poor community.

Our town is in dire need of investmentsin businesses in order to create jobs andbroaden the tax base. I am sure that RetailAfricadidtheirhomeworkinordertoearna reasonable return on their investmentand on that score the viability of the mallis entirely their risk.

The mall should create some 500 – 1 000direct and indirect temporary jobs duringthe construction phase and possibly an-other50–100permanent jobs.Consideringthat since 2004 only ±1 200 jobs were creat-ed, it stands to reason that any additionaljobscreated,against thecurrenteconomicbackground, is to be encouraged.

It should also have a knock-on effect onlocal businesses and this needs to be ad-dressed, given the history of previous de-velopments where local businesses wereside-lined.

There is a window of opportunity fromnow until construction has been complet-ed, during which the plans of the CBDCommittee in conjunction with Over-strand Municipality can be refined andimplemented to reinvent the CBD as some-thing we all can be proud of.

We know what the problems are. It ishow we work around these problems to-wards a positive result that becomes thechallenge. Cape Town did it, so can we.

For the record, I still think that the mall,as the two parking garages with the bestviews in the world, are the products of alack of a clear vision and strategy for Her-manus and should never have happened.

However, given the current economicimperatives I believe on balance of thefacts, it is in the interest of the broadercommunity that the mall goes ahead – weneed the investment and the creation ofjobs.

There is no alternative that I am awareof. The consequences of not having an al-ternativestrategytocreate jobsandallevi-ate poverty could be dire. This should con-cern all of us.

Public participation (real face-to-face,not just the mechanical ticking of boxes)and complete transparency will be neededduring the lead up to the construction ofthe mall to ensure that hard pressed rate-payers don’t see the council transfer ahuge debt burden or increased rates/tar-iffs to fund infrastructure related to thedevelopment of the mall.

The ratepayers should not be out-of-pocket as a result of this development.

Van molle en walvisse – op hol oor die mallDie sakekamer nooi almal uit vir ’n vergade-ring oor die mall wat hulle wil bou in Sand-baai.

So gaan sit ons toe in die “hall” en luisterhoe gryse wyses brom oor die mall.

Die saaltjie is vol en die sakekamer is mooiparaat, sommer met koffie en gassprekers.Een gasspreker is werklik vol gas, soos hystoom en prut oor aardverwarming en kli-maatsverandering, nasionale en provinsialeomgewingsplanne,maarnetsoosonsogiesbe-gin toeval bring hy uiteindelik die kloutjie bydiemall,deuraantebeveeldatdiemunisipali-teit eerder vir die armes huise daar bou. Slaanmy met ’n slap snoek! Ons dog die oom is ’n“stand up comedian” (wel, dan moet hy nogbietjie oefen) want dis immers private grond.

Maar miskien is hy die EFF se agent hier,om sommer left, right en senter grond te komonteien!

Die volgende paar sakemanne praat ookvaagweg teen die mall, maar mens wonder ofhulle ook vir die armes wil huise bou, en ofhulle net nie nog kompetisie teen hulle in diedorp wil hê nie en dit probeer wegsteek agter’n vrees vir Sjinese, ag skuus, vir die vervalvan die CBD. Hulle betoog dat die SieBieDie(CBD) meer seedy en lelik gaan word en vervalin ’n gangster hool, en dan sal al die toeristewegbly, as hierdie monster mol gebou word.(Het nou nie werklik gebeur toe die Stasie

mall en Woolies gebou was nie, maar nou ja,selfde koor en selfde song was ook daar toedie Gateway mall jare gelede gebou is.)

Ons gaan loop toe rond op die grond vandie toekomstige mall. Dit sal mos heet die“Whale Coast Mall”. Maar ons lag – hulle lieg!Dis nie eers naby die kus nie en daar is ookgeen walvisse te sien nie! Ons almal noem ditsommer klaar “Sandbaai se mol”.

Wel, dis eintlik nou net regte molle en daaiAussie-plakkers, Port Jackson, wat opslaanso ver die oog kan sien. Ons, ek en die honde,loop versigtig deur Port Jackson Park en dis’n groot plesier vir my twee vlooi taxi’s om“free range’”rond te kan hardloop en snuf virdie molshope. Dink toe: mense maak daremmaklik walvisberge van mall-hope.

Ek dink by myself, ’n mol speel mos nie met’n walvis nie, ’n mol steel nie ons fraaie kus-paadjies, toeriste of mooi eet- en koopplekkiesby die waterfront nie, en ek dink geen toeris(behalwe Noord Koreane miskien?) gaan kui-er in malls terwyl hulle in ons mooi sonskynop die pragtige kus walvisse kan kyk en room-ys kan eet nie.Il faut cultiver son propre jardin – Losweg

Dié dienslewering is navolgenswaardigWat menigte kliënte se wagwoord ten opsigtevan dienslewering is, kan baie gemaklik be-skryf word met die dienslewering by SupaQuick, Hermanus. Daar word telkemale onre-delike goeie diens verwag van sekere instan-sies (ek dink byvoorbeeld aan bankwese, watvolgensmy’nslaansakgewordhetvirdiensle-wering), maar daar is ook (nog altyd) billikeverwagtinge rondom goeie dienslewering.

Ek is nie ’n verkrampte persoon wat ’n soek-lig op “outydse” dienslewering wil plaas nie.Ek dink met ’n nuwe hoed op my kop.

Dit vir my, beteken net ’n dienslewerings-firma wat net meer as die nodige sal doen ommy as kliënt se behoeftes in ag te neem. EkweetdatOosieensyspanbySupaQuicklegen-daries is, en ek wil dit net bevestig.

Dit sal onregverdig wees om die detail tebeskryf rakende die diens wat ek van Oosiegekry het. Ek dink dit sal hom bankrot maakas hy die diens aan almal gee! Maar ek weethy sal dit doen. Dit is dié onbaatsugtige hou-ding wat van hom so ’n groot sukses maak.

Prostese teruggeneem‘omdat Tiaandit niedra’

Die Tiaan Boshoff Fonds is in 2011 gestig; diepubliek kon ook geld direk aan die Boshoffsskenk. Die meerderheid donateurs was sakeluivan Gauteng, maar bydraes is ook vanuit dieplaaslike gemeenskap ontvang.

Die Boshoff-familie het geldelike bystand ont-vang uit die fonds en gratis chirurgie is vir Ti-aan gereël. Die handfiets en die tennisrolstoelis deur die fonds gekoop vir sy gebruik. Daarisherhaaldelikgesteldatdie fondseiendomsregbehouendit isdeurdieboekhouerasbategelys.

Die Boshoffs het in Maart 2012 die fiets vanErnst van Dyk gekoop en die fonds het besluitdat hul fiets vir twee maande gedeel moet wordmet gestremde persone van Hawston. Hierdiekontrak is onderteken, maar verbreek – Haws-ton-atleteisverhinderomteoefen, terwylTiaanalbei fietse gebruik het.

Tiaan het die prostese op 29 September 2012ontvang. Die getekende kontrak stipuleer datdieprostesedieeiendomvandiefondsblytotdatdit afgeteken word deur die mediese span násuksesvolle rehabilitasie. Volgens die kontrakhet Tiaan onderneem om die prostese daaglikste dra en rehabilitasie en sielkundige beradingte ondergaan. Hy het egter nooit die prostesedaagliks gedra in 2012 nie.

Reëlings is toe getref met die skool dat Tiaandie prostese in Januarie 2013 daagliks sou dra.Volgens die fisioterapeut het hy egter nie geoe-fen gedurende die Desember-skoolvakansie nieen rehabilitasie moes in 2013 van vooraf begin.Hy het sy prostese gedurende die afgelope 15maande net sowat agt keer skool toe gedra.

Op ’n jaarvergadering van die donateurs inJulie 2013 is besluit om die fonds te hernoem nadieChildren’sMobilityFundomandergestrem-de kinders te help. Die donateurs het besluit omdie handfiets aan die atlete van Hawston, en dieprostese aan ’n ander gestremde kind, te skenk.

Die professionele span het aanvaar dat hy niepermanent met die been sou stap nie en wou nieverdere druk op hom plaas nie. Daarom is dieprostese teruggeneem.

What I have read in the Hermanus Times re-garding the mall in the last while boggles themind. My family and I moved to Hermanusjust over a year ago, and we are proud to callHermanus home. The only disappointmentfor us is the constant delays in the buildingof the mall.

To see the reactions from some sections ofthecommunitytothemall issurprising.Someof the arguments raised are simply ludicrous.If you want to question the accuracy of re-search done, where is the research you havedone?

It seems some interesting conclusions arereached based on nothing but perceptions.TheCBDneedsrevitalisation,mallornomall.Get on with it.

There is a shop in Hermanus selling lion’s teeth.Perhaps we should offer our tourists scrimshaw,stuffed oyster catchers and seal skins.)What’s the point now of climbing Hoy’s Koppieif the new building blocks the view of the sea?) Another mall, another block house? We need

an upmarket conference centre with cinemas, nota cheaper tin of baked beans. Is there no loyaltyto local businesses?Why is B.R.I.C.S holding theirconference inKleinmond?Amissedmarketingopportunity servedonaplate.–GAYNORPULKER) To the person who stated the architect who designed the Woolworths building and adjacent“blockhouse” should catch a wake up. Any architect, when commissioned to design any type ofstructure or building, is informed by the client asto the requiredstyleanddimensionsof the structurerequired. To state that the architect singlehandedlydestroyed the view fromHoy’s koppie is ablatantinsult. What people are you referring to? Howmanypeopleclimb thekoppie to lookat that specific “blockhouse” view? You are challenged to submit, in the HT, your design of what you perceivethe “blockhouse” should have looked like. Thenallow us to comment on and/or insult your effort.Don’t criticize without providing an alternative solution.– HG) Die CBD het nie genoeg parkering vir al dieinwoners/besoekersnieen swakdiensenhoëpryse laat my oor die berg vlug vir inkopies. Die antimall’ers is selfsugtig en geld georiënteerd.– INWONER VERMONT) Tripping over broken paving, dodging betweenwares packed on the sidewalks, paying for parking or shopping serenely in air conditioned, safetywith free parking at a mall? No competition.– JL) Ek stem saam met ander Sandbaaiinwonersdat veral senior burgers die mall sal verwelkom.Dink aan brandstof besparing. Gun ons iets.– INWONER GOLDEN HARVEST

Not everyone is fit and able to tacklesuch a big job, or have the funds and trucks todo this.– LINDA) Is daar ’n omgewingsimpakstudie gedoen om’n breekwatermuur in Sandbaai te bou? Oppasom te veel met die natuur in te meng om die menste bevredig. Kyk wat het met Bettysbaai se duinegebeur.) Die fynbos en park tussen Meent en Wesendstrate is munisipale eiendom.

Ek wonder net hoekom die gras in Onrus Karavaanpark nie gesny word nie?– WILLIE BOTHA) Who is responsible for picking up dog poohat Voëlklip beach? It has become a health hazardto sun seekers.) I find it fascinating that at Onrus beach, peopletotally ignore the notice boards all the time. There’sno concern for the health of little toddlers andyoung kids by their parents who choose to ignorethe “No SwimmingPollution” sign. Loads of people also bring all sorts of dogs to the beach andthen let them off their leashes. No regard for thelaw as well as no consideration for anybody else.) Northcliff residents, please listen when yourdogs bark all day and during the early morning,please. Surely you must hear them or do you sleepwith earplugs?

Wanneer is reëneers regtig reën?

Wat is die verskil tussen swaar mistigheid enreën? En hoeveel is 30% neerslag?

Dit is ’n paar van die vrae wat lesers die afgelo-pe tyd al hoe meer laat kopkrap, want soos Xhosa,Afrikaans en Engels in die koerant lesers somslaat frons, is daar min mense op straat wat altoosdie taal van weervoorspellers verstaan.

Dit is geen grappie nie. Veral op TV wissel dievoorspellers deesdae dikwels en elkeen het sy eiemanier van praat oor die weer. Een sal aanme-kaar sê daar is koue lug in sirkulasie en anderpadkyk. ’n Ander sal op die droogtegebiede fokuswanneer party boere duim vashou dat dit nie byhulle reën nie.

Omvoortebegin,kykonsvandagindierubriekna die voorspelling van ’n bietjie reën (Donder-dag) tussen elf- en vyfuur teen die aand se kant.Daar word gepraat van 0,8 mm, en dit oor 30%van die Suid-Kaap. Wanneer dit uit die suide komsoos vandag, is dit seevog wat opgeneem is maarweens die warm bolug nie hoog genoeg kan stygom wolke te maak nie. Die vog gaan terug grondtoeendieverskynselwordoor30%vandiegebiedgesien. Die 30% wat gereeld genoem word, kandus nie in mm gemeet word nie.

Diewenkbroueligdanookomdatdieomvatten-devoorspelling ’nheelanderstorie isendaarvooris dit nodig dat mens maar die klimaat van jouonmiddellike omgewing ken. Veral die Over-strand verskil baie van omliggende gebiede en

vandaar die lekker geselsstories onder diege-ne wat die weer in ag neem tydens hul daag-likse aktiwiteite, soos hengel, tuinmaak ensommer net uitstappies. Dis ’n goeie beleidom vir alles te beplan.

Daar is ’n groot verskil in swak sake in dieOverstrand se hoofstraat weens swak weeren min besoekers, en swak sake in die hoof-straat weens padwerke wat besoekers van diewinkels af hou.

En wat sien ons vandeesweek as ons diewolke bekyk? Ons sien ’n patroon wat mooiinpasbydiestandvandiemaanendieoorska-keling na ’n nuwe seisoen.

Dit is wolke aan- en- af , en son en geen neer-slae van meer as 1 mm tot die einde van diemaand nie. En oor daardie 1 mm kan mensook lank gesels want wanneer kan ons reën,reën noem? Eers nadat die water in die sy-paadjies begin afloop soos wanneer die burehul motor was en meer water mors as watin die dorpsdam inloop, sê oom Langfaan.

Light rain measuring no more than 0,8 mm can be expectedtoday (Thursday) between 11:00 and 17:00. But because of thewarm upper air, the moisture moving in from the sea will notbe able to rise sufficiently to form clouds that could bring morerain. The Overstrand will enjoy sunny skies over the weekend.

ZEBRA VS ZEBRA: Anschen du Plessis, ’n vryskut fotograaf wat onlangs na SuidAfrika teruggekeer het vanDubai, het hierdie fotoaan Hermanus Timesgestuur. Sy skryf: “Omdat ek ’n fotograaf is‘sien’ ek altyd ’n potensiële foto. Ek kon nieanders nie as om hierdie een te neem van ‘nZebrapadroller wat regoorkant die Zebra Crossing restaurant in Hermanus se hoofstraataan die werk was.”

SHOP IMMORTALISED ON CANVAS: Di Rattle (left), owner ofthe proudlyHermanus gift shop Shuk, was delighted whenlocal artist Peter Wooldridge presented her with this painting.Featuring a montage of the different elements that epitomiseHermanus, such as fishing boats, whales, fynbos and fisherman’s cottages in town, Peter’s painting also depicts the picturesque frontage of Di’s shop, Shuk, which is the Hebrewword for “market”. Shuk stocks a selection of carefullysourced items, most of which are handcrafted locally. Petercompleted the painting just before the Whale Festival lastyear, and it was exhibited at the Walker Bay Art Gallery before he generously decided to donate the painting to Di.

Bird identificationcourse offersmoreThe Flight for Birders bird identificationand conservation course by Anton Odendalwill be presented at the community hall atMollergren Park on 21 and 22 February.

The content of the course was changeddramatically at the end of 2013, says Oden-dal. “In 2014 we will be celebrating the 10thanniversary of the course and will now becelebrating our country’s birds with photo-graphs by some of the topwildlife photogra-phers in South Africa.

“Much stronger emphasis is also beingplaced on conservation issues, in line withtheMOU signed between the Overberg divi-sionofCapeNatureandBirdLifeOverberg.”

A new addition to the course is a sectionfocusing on the differences between the var-ious families of LBJs and other confusingspecies, as well as birds of prey, and howthis applies to the region where the courseis being presented.

“In many cases images of similar and po-tentially confusing species have been com-bined on the same slide in order to illustratedifferences,” says Odendal.

“Thedevelopmentofan infrastructure forbirding tourists in local areas will also behighlighted. Inthevastmajorityof theslidesEnglish andAfrikaans names of species areprinted onto the slide. The course focuseson basic steps in the identification of birds,places heavy emphasis on where to find therareandoftenendemicbirds insouthernAf-rica and illustrates how ordinary bird-watchers could become involved in the con-servation of birds and their habitats.”

The cost of the course is R500 per personand includes the course manual, a certifi-cate endorsed by BirdLife South Africa anda year’s free membership to BirdLife Over-berg.

Parts of the proceeds of the courses willbe donated to Black Harrier conservation.

Bot River Estuarywild filly operated onThe Equestrian Centre Over-strand was contacted by Cape-Nature on Friday 7 Februaryfor assistance regarding a fillywhich had damaged her eyeand had a very bad infection.This was reported by DanieGeldenhysofFisherhavenwhosent photos of the injury.

Rooisand Nature Reservenature conservator, Tarné Jo-hannes, forwarded the photosto Dr Anna Bowker of Her-manus Vet Hospital. After ex-amining the photos, Bowkerwas of the opinion that the onlytreatment that might save thefilly was to operate and removethe eye as the eyeball had shrunk andsunk into the eye socket. She wouldhowever first check the eye beforemaking a decision, she said.

Sarah Milton from the EquestrianCentre Overstrand assisted with cap-turing and restraining the mare andfilly on Monday 10 February. Thecentre was also able to help themwith the operation and the use oftheir horsebox for the transporta-tion.

Once the filly and mare were locat-ed in Fisherhaven, Bowker decidedto move them to the centre’s stablesnear Rooisand Nature Reserve forthe operation and post treatment.

The loading of the horses went welland both horses experienced very lit-tle stress. When they arrived at theequestrian centre, they were sedatedand the filly had her pre-operativetreatment. The operation was suc-cessful with the eye being removed

from the socket. Had the eyebeen left, the infection wouldhave worked its way into thebrain causing loss of mobilityand eventually death.

“The eye was then stitchedback up and we waited for thefoal to wake up,” says Milton.“At first she was a bit wobblyon her legs, so we stayed withthem to make sure that shedidn’t fall over or hurt herself.She came out of the operationvery well.”

Afterwards, both the mareand filly rested in the paddockovernight. The vet will contin-ue to treat the filly as required.

It was a good day for the preserva-tion of the Bot River Estuary wildhorses. “The collaboration by all par-ties was excellent and very helpful inassuring that the filly and mare suf-fered very little stress,” says Milton.“A big thank you to Anna, the vet,who gave up her time to help and didsuch a great job.

“Let’s pray for a speedy recoveryand that they can be reunited withthe herd as soon as possible.”

BSEGMENTCOMPACTCAR: LOWCOSTOFOWNERSHIP

Fordunveils Figo conceptQUICKPIC

Ford today revealed its visionfor a global B-segment com-pact car featuring premium

design and segment-redefiningsmart and safety features aheadofthe12th2014AutoExpoinNewDelhi.

With the global unveiling of theFord Figo Concept, Ford aims to setnew standards for quality andcraftsmanship in the B-segment,aiming to exceed the expectations ofconsumers in emerging markets.Created at less than four metreslong, the concept displays a pur-poseful presence and a no-compro-miseaestheticthatcontinuesFord’sdesign leadership in the compactcar market globally.

“With the Figo Concept, we areshowingthatchoosingacompactse-dan does not mean compromisingon premium design or smart solu-tions,” said Kumar Galhotra, vicepresident of Engineering, GlobalProduct Development, Ford MotorCompany. “The Figo Conceptstands out and surprises, offering amore premium and refined feel thanyou would expect in such a pack-age.”

The Ford Figo Concept builds onthe automaker’s compact car offer-ings and shows how Ford plans toface rapidly growing global demandfor compact vehicles. Despite itsrapid growth, the compact car seg-ment will remain highly competi-tive as increasingly savvy buyerslook for ways to make their moneygo further.

“Consumers are more demandingthan ever, wanting and expectingmore from their cars, even if theyare first-time buyers,” said Ford

India President Nigel Harris. “Theyexpect and demand great fuel effi-ciency and low cost-of-ownershipfrom the initial price throughoutthe life of the vehicle. The Ford FigoConcept offers all of this, and more,with sophistication, fresh design,world-class quality, a roomy interi-or, and innovative smart and safetechnology.”

With the goal of bringing unex-pected levels of refinement to thecompact car segment, designers cre-ated the Ford Figo Concept using de-sign elements common to more ex-pensive vehicles.

The front trapezoidal grillestrongly communicates Ford’s de-sign DNA and shapes the vehicle’shood,givingitapowerful look.Mov-ing rearward, designers inclinedthe windshield as much as possibleto give the vehicle a sleek, fast pro-file that communicates a high-endimage. Bold, elongated and blacked-out headlamps accentuate the FigoConcept’s sporty appearance. In anexample of the close attention de-signers paid to the smallest detail,a slight grain in the headlamp plas-tic enhances the parabolic shape in-side. Sweeping, curved lines mov-ing from the front to the rear of thevehicle create a sense of movement.Designers used light-catchers alongthe sides of the vehicle, giving theFigo Concept a robust and muscularpresence.

“The Figo Concept represents ourvision of a refined, no-compromiseapproach to designing a compactcar,” said Ehab Kaoud, chief design-er, Ford North America, who led de-sign for the Ford Figo Concept. “Sooften in this segment you see de-signs based on current trends andfashions that quickly look dated. Wewantedinsteadtocreateapremium,

long-lasting design that is clean andelegant, and which conveys a senseofprecision,efficiencyandsophisti-cation.”

The shape of the Ford Figo Con-cept is more than a design exercise:It was fine-tuned through hundredsof hours of wind-tunnel testing toimprove aerodynamics and reducewind noise, ensuring a quiet ridethat will match the vehicle’s refinedexterior. Aerodynamic tweakinghas also resulted in a shape thatmaximises fuel efficiency, helpingthe Ford Figo Concept to slipsmoothly through the air.

Smart design features like electri-

cally adjustable power-fold mirrorsare practical, helping to remove thestress of driving through a congest-ed environment. The mirrors’ flexi-ble architecture prevents themfrom being broken off if bumped byanother car or motorbike. And Forddesigned the Ford Figo Concept tofeature unprecedented levels ofsafety for its class, further enhanc-ing the driver’s peace of mind.

Moving inside a spacious cabinfilled with innovative stowage spac-es, the Ford Figo Concept deliverssurprising features that bring thepromise of tomorrow’s technologiesto drivers of compact vehicles. With

an innovative device dock, the FigoConcept introduces a new way tostore, mount and charge devicessuch as mobile phones, MP3 playersand satellite navigation systems,seamlessly integrating them intothe in-car entertainment system.

“In design, connectivity and safe-ty, the features in the Figo Conceptare at the forefront of smart technol-ogy,” said Galhotra.

“The Figo concept was createdwith global standards of design,quality and performance. It is theperfect symbol of how we continueto build on the One Ford plan to gofurther for all of our customers.”

With the goal of bringing unexpected levels of refinement to the compact car segment, designers created theFord Figo Concept using design elements common to more expensive vehicles. PHOTO: QUICKPIC

Subaruunveils2015Legacy conceptat LAAutoShowQUICKPIC

The 2015 Legacy echoes design themes in-troducedbytheLegacyConceptatthe2013Los Angeles Auto Show. The productionmodel combines sporty form and efficientfunction.

Key to the sleeker, coupe-like profile is a“nosecone” front section that combines thegrille and bumper into one smooth piece. Analuminium bonnet reduces weight over thefront wheels, enhancing steering response.The2015Legacymaintainsa footprint similarto the model it replaces.

The 2015 Legacy’s windscreen is moreraked, pulled forward by 50 mm at the base.Thenewwindscreenangle,higherseatinghippoints,newfrontpartitionwindowsanddoor-mountedside-viewmirrorshelpimprovevisi-bility. A 10-percent improvement in aerody-

namic efficiency contributes to lower fuel con-sumption as well. All 2015 Legacy 2.5i trimlevels debut a standard Active Grille Shuttersystem, which helps to improve fuel economyby reducing wind resistance when closed.

In the Legacy 3.6 R Limited, new standardHID low-beam headlights give the car a moredistinctive night-time signature. The U-shapetail and brake lights on all models use LEDbulbs for lowerpower consumptionanda luxu-rious appearance. Limited trim-line modelsfeature turnsignal exteriormirrors,whichareavailable as an option for the Premium.

Subaru significantlyupgraded infotainmentcapability in the 2015 Legacy. A new 6.2 Info-tainment System in the Legacy 2.5i model pro-vides AM/FM stereo with RDS, a single-discin-dash CD player, 6.2-inch multi-functiontouch screen displaywhich integrates the rearview camera, Bluetooth® hands-free phoneconnectivity and audio streaming, iPod® con-

trol capability, USB port and an aux inputjack. The multi-touch display offers swipeand scrolling gestures – much like tabletsand smartphones,

The upgraded infotainment system in the2.5i Premiumadds a 6-speaker audio systemwith 7-inch touch screen display, SMS textmessaging and dual USB ports.

Standard for the2015LegacyLimitedmod-els, a new high-end audio system combinesa 576-Watt equivalent AM/FM radio unitwith12harman/kardonspeakers, includinga front centre speaker and a rear subwoofer.The amplifier and speakers use harman/kardon Green Edge technology, which re-duces system weight and power consump-tion.

The Navigation Infotainment Systemavailable for the PremiumandLimited trimlevels, in addition to the multi-function dis-play, featuresaninteractivevoicecommandsystem that accepts natural language andphrases and also operates the dual-zone au-tomatic climate control system. Amore ver-satile centre console in the 2015 Legacy pro-vides a storage area that can hold an iPad.

A new covered storage bin at the front ofthe console incorporates aUSB port, 3.5 mm

aux jack and a 12v power socket. Models withhigh-grade audio or navigation feature twoUSB ports, making it possible to listen to mu-sic and charge two connected devices.

Both 2015 Legacymodels are equippedwitha newly refined version of the Active TorqueSplitversionofSymmetricalAll-WheelDrive.An electronicallymanaged continuously var-iable transfer clutch actively controls torquedistribution inresponse todrivingconditionsandwheel slippage.Thesystemcansendaddi-tional torque to the rear wheels either pro-ac-tively or in response to slippage at the frontwheels. Taking input from acceleration,steering angle and yaw-rate sensors, ActiveTorque Split AWD optimises traction andsteering responsewhen accelerating throughturns and curves, particularly when the roadsurface is slippery.

The 2015Legacy 2.5i is poweredbyadouble-overhead-cam FB series 2.5-litre Boxer® en-gine that debuted in 2013 and now receivesnumerous enhancements for lighter weight,improved efficiency and quieter operation.Power is increased slightly to 131 kW. Peaktorque remains at 236 Nm but is spread overabroaderenginespeedrange formorerespon-sive performance.

With the 2015 Legacy, Subaru continues tooffer a 6-cylinder model in the midsize sedansegment. The 3.6-litre Boxer® engine produc-es 191 kW and 335 Nm of peak torque.

For2015,allLegacymodelsnowcomestand-ardwith a Lineartronic™CVT (continuouslyvariable transmission), with the 6-cylindermodel using a high-torque version. Changesmade to reduce friction in theCVTcontributeto higher fuel efficiency in the 2015 Legacy.

The turbocharged performance figures in-clude a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 9,5 secondsand a top speed of 197 km/h.

Balancing out the increase in excitementand sporty driving antics, the ECOTEC® en-ginealsoprovides for improvedfuelefficiency– the new Sonic RS consumes just 6,6 F per100 km on the combined average cycle, withcarbon emissions of 155 g/km to match.

Tuned suspension, which takes shape in theform of a MacPherson strut design up frontand a multi-link setup at the rear, allows forimproved handling especially under sportierconditions, theSonicRSfeaturingalowerrideheight with stiffer suspension and perform-ance-tuned dampers to deliver a communica-tive and firm, yet comfortable ride.

The new Chevrolet Sonic RS can be easilyidentified by the distinct yet subtle designchanges found on the exterior. A more aggres-sive front bumper features expressive and an-gular fog lights with chrome detailing. Gun-metal-painted17-inchalloywheels inamuscu-lar five-spoke design are separated by chunkynew side skirts and black painted door mir-rors with integrated Led indicators and at therear, the motorcycle-inspired tail lights arejoined by a new roof spoiler, an accented reardiffuser with a striking trapezoidal exhausttip and special Sonic RS badging.

The interior continues the sporty designtheme with top-quality materials used to ex-press the RS moniker. Red accents abound –the stitching on the leather-bound, flat-bot-tomed steering wheel, “RS” emblems on theseatsandpipingonthefloormats–embodyingthe zestier Sonic’s personality. An upgradedrev counter also features an RS badge.

The Chevrolet MyLink system is an integra-tion of the most popular and advanced info-tainment functions incorporated into an easy-to-use, attractive and effective interfacewhich transforms the Chevrolet Sonic RS intoa connected entertainment hub while on themove.

The high-resolution 7-inch touch screen isperfectly integrated into the vehicle’s dash-board and features touch button controls fora thoroughly modern look and feel. Voice con-trol on most smartphones and steering wheel-mounted controls also mean the system canbe operated in complete safety with bothhands on the steering wheel.

Befitting of the new halo model in the Chev-rolet Sonic range, the new Sonic RS featuresa high level of value-adding specifications interms of safety, comfort and convenience.

Safety equipment includes disc brakes all-round with ABS, EBD and BAS, ESC and Trac-tion Control, a full-size spare wheel, ISOFIXchild seat anchors and four airbags.

Milnerdonatesartpieces tohospiceDorothy Milner,known by herfriends as Dotty,has generously do-nated two pieces ofart from her latehusband Leslie’sconsiderable col-lection toOpportu-nityArt 3,which isto be hosted on29 March by Over-strand Hospice.

Dotty has retiredfrom the family-owned businessknown as New YorkBagels and Deli inSea Point.Leslie Milner was

a pioneer in the foodindustry in SouthAfrica, establishinga frozen foodplant, apickledcucumber facto-ry,andthecountry’s firstsmokedsalmonfac-tory, which supplied to the local industry aswell as exported to Australia, Germany andCanada.“Leslie did not speculate in art, he trusted

his instincts andmade choices motivated bythe sheer enjoyment his collection provid-ed,” says Dotty. Consequently many of thesepaintings have never been seen outside thecircle of Milner’s family and friends. He waswell known for his pioneering work in thefood industry, but many people will be sur-prised to discover his passion for art.In the 1950s Leslie met Solly Disner, a ten-

ant inhisgardens factory. Itwas throughSol-ly, himself a sculptor andart dealer, thatLes-liewas introduced to the leadingCapeartists

of the time.Hewouldsometimesacceptartin lieu of rent, in-cluding importantworks by MaggieLaubser, Paul duToit and Morris vanEssche, but his firstacquisition was no-tably Irma Stern’sStill life with TigerLilies and a Melon.Dotty recalls how

furious she was withhim when hebrought the paintinghome, as they stillhad no chairs in thehouse. He formed en-during ties with theart world, includingGerald Sekoto, whowas exiled and livingin Paris, and is now

a highly respected South African artist.It is from this collection that Dotty has do-

nated two early works by Cape Town artistStanley Hermans. Hermans has had severalprivate commissions and his work is dis-played in the South African National Gal-lery, Durban Art Gallery and the Sasol andSanlam collections.Overstrand Hospice thanks Dotty and the

Milner family sincerely for their interest inthis project.As Opportunity Art 3, a wonderful event

whichhasprovidedashowcaseof talenteachyear and enabled the entire community anopportunity to buy some piece of art that“talks” to them,gainsmomentum, theorgan-isers urge all artists, both casual and profes-sional, to donate a piece of their choice.

Dotty Milner has contributed two paintingsfrom her late husband’s impressive art collection to Overstrand Hospice’s OpportunityArt 3 fundraiser which takes place at theend of March.

FAST TRACK: Qhayiya Secondary School held their Interhouse athletics day at the Zwelihle Sports Stadium on Friday 7 February. Due to a lack of equipment only track eventswere held and the sprint events were certainly the most exciting. It was decided to onlyhave finals in the 100 m, 200 m and middle distance events as a result of the largenumber of participants.White House won the day with 67 points, followed by the BlueHouse with 46 points. Yellow came in third with 36 points and in fourth position wasthe Red House with 31 points. PHOTO: MOGAMAT KAMEDIEN
