Sweet minder met Botoks
Corné Verwey
HOëVELD - Die gebruik van Botoks is nog
vir baie mans en vroue vreemd en sommige
dink selfs dat dit gevaarlik en taboe is as ’n
estetiese hulpmiddel.
Dr. Carine Smit van Secunda het gesê:
“Botoks is vir meer as 200 jaar bekend in
die mediese wêreld nadat inwoners van
Duitsland voedselvergifting gekry het omdat
hulle bloedwors geëet het.
“Die simptome was lamheid in die bene en
arms en hulle het gesukkel om te sluk.”
Die Botolinium Toksien is deur dr.
Justinus Kerner in 1870 ontdek en hy het
die terapeutiese gebruik van dié toksien
begin navors om die newe-effek daarvan tot
voordeel van pasiënte met Bellsverlamming
en serebrale gestremdheid wat met
spasisiteit gepaard gaan, te gebruik.
Hedendaags word dit veral vir die
behandeling van oormatige sweet van die
oksels, handpalms en voetsole, kners van
tande, spastisiteit, oog wat hang (Ptose) en
skeelheid (Strabisme) toegedien.
Sweetkliere kom oral in die liggaam voor,
maar is meer aktief op handpalms, voetsole
en oksels.
Die reuk wat gepaard gaan met sweet,
is nie van die sweet as sulks nie, maar wel
bakterieë wat groei as die sweet vir ’n lang
ruk nie afgewas kan word nie.
Mense wat beroertes gehad het en sukkel
met die een kant van die gesig wat hang,
word ook effektief met Botoks behandel.
Botoks word ook toegedien aan
serebraalgestremde kinders om spiersmasma
te verlig.
Dr. Smit het gesê: “Botoks kan jou help
om met grasie te verouder.
“Indien jy dit nie gebruik nie, verouder jy
bloot net.”
“Die regte ouderdom om met behandelings
te begin om tyd te fnuik, is 28.”
HOW TO BUY A
TUMBLE DRYER
When it comes to which tumble dryer is best for
you, our guide explains the standout features and
technologies to consider. Learn about the importance of sensor drying, adjustable temperatures
and condenser, vented and heat pump models.
Compare the range of drying programmes on each
appliance to find the one that best cares for your
clothes. Energy efficiency is an important factor
for saving on household bills and reducing your
environmental impact.
Most tumble dryers feature a filter - often inside
the door - which collects stray fibres and must be
regularly cleaned to maintain best drying performance. Look out for the Our Experts Love Logo
when shopping. These tumble dryers have been
hand-picked by our experts and showcase the
most exciting and useful features available across
all price brackets.

Dit sal jou gesig vir jare jonk en vars
laat lyk en as die dokter wat die inspuiting
toedien, gekwalifiseerd is, is die neweeffekte min tot geen.
Dr. Smit het ook gesê: “Dit is belangrik
om te weet dat die behandeling wel
omkeerkbaar is indien jy nie tevrede is met
die resultate nie.”
Mediese fondse betaal nie vir die
behandeling nie, maar dit is bekostigbaar en
binne elkeen se bereik om jonk te lyk of ’n
sweetprobleem stop te sit.
Die behandeling is vinnig en behels
inspuitings met ’n klein naald met matige tot
geen ongemak.
Botoks word nie aanbeveel vir swanger
vroue of vroue wat borsvoed nie.
Normaalweg sou dokters ’n operasie,
Simpatektomie, doen vir die behandeling
van hiperhidrose (oormatige sweet).
Botoks is ’n gepatenteerde handelsnaam
van die mediese maatskappy Allergan en
mag slegs toegedien word deur mediese
dokters wat gespesialiseer het in die
toediening daarvan.
Dr. Smit het beklemtoon dat mense nie
tussen dokters moet “rondhop” en meer as
die terapeutiese dosis sodoende oorskry nie.
Dit is noodsaaklik om eerlik te wees met
jou dokter en die perfekte mediese plan vir
jou spesifieke behoefte te bepaal en uit te
voer.
Vented, Condenser and Heat Pump Dryers
Vented tumble dryers work by expelling warm,
damp air through a hose and out of an open
window or a vent installed in an external wall.
They are generally more affordable than condenser models.
Vented tumble dryers need to be positioned by
a window, door or external wall to dispose of the
damp air, so you will need to either have an external vent fitted in the wall or hang the hose out of
the window.
Condenser tumble dryers don’t require an externally-vented hose, so you’ll enjoy the freedom of
installing them wherever you want, provided the
room is well-ventilated. The water removed from
your clothes is collected in a container, which must
be removed and emptied regularly. On some models, excess water is pumped out using the washing
machine plumbing where suitable.
Heat pump tumble dryers use heat pump
technology and are the most energy-efficient
condenser dryers on the market. By using a lower
drying temperature, they onsume less electricity
and save money on your household bills. They are
also very gentle on your clothes and extremely
quiet.

Kragonderbrekings beïnvloed ondernemings
BETHAL - Ondernemings in Clercqstraat
trek swaar weens voortdurende
kragonderbrekings.
Krag gaan daagliks aan en af sonder
waarskuwing of dat inwoners in kennis
gestel word.
Dokters en sakelui het bevestig dat die
krag al om 8.10vm af gaan en af bly.
Hulle is wel dankbaar dat die krag vir die
laaste drie dae nog nie afgegaan het nie.
Sakelui en dokters moes kragopwekkers
aanskaf om diens te kan lewer. ’n Tandarts in
Clercqstraat moes reeds ’n eenheid van die
X-straalmasjien vervang en telefoonstelsels
moes ook vervang word nadat hulle weens
kragonderbrekings uitgebrand het.
Volgens inwoners gaan die krag tot 10
keer ’n dag aan en af.
Govan Mbeki Munisipaliteit se
verduideliking bly steeds as volg:
“Die daaglikse kragonderbrekings van
elektrisiteit op Bethal en eMzinoni het op 20
Februarie begin toe ’n Standerton-substasie
ontplof het toe weerlig dit getref het.
“Die ontploffing het groot skade aan
die substasie se MV-skakeltuig en ander
toerusting binne die substasie veroorsaak,”
het mnr. Bheki Kubheka, kommunikasie- en
bemarkingsbestuurder van die munisipaliteit
verduidelik.
Dit het beteken dat alle foute uit die
ondergrondse netwerk en oorhoofse netwerk
eMzinoni en Bethal direk sal beïnvloed.
“Inwoners word voortdurend
aangemoedig om hul elektriese toerusting te
beskerm.
“Die munisipaliteit sal nie aanspreeklik
gehou word vir enige skade nie.
“Govan Mbeki Munisipaliteit vra om
verskoning vir die ongerief,” het mnr.
Kubheka gesê.

On the couch with the well known DJ Leehleza
Levhuwani Matumba
LEANDRA - Lindelihle Gladwell Sukazi,
also known as DJ Leehleza, is a well-known
deejay who managed to build his company
from the ground until he became a resident
deejay.
His love of being a deejay began way back
in 2007 when he used a computer for baby
showers and birthday events.
DJ Leehleza began using CD Jays in 2010
when he was a resident deejay at Calitos in
Bethal and admitted that he got most of his
exposure from there.
Like any other family, his mother gave
him all the support, on condition that he
continues with his studies.
“After realising that my mother was
serious about education, I registered for a
course in mechanical, fitting and turning
in 2012 at the GS TVET College and will
be graduating in August,” said Leehleza
who further mentioned that balancing his
studies and his deejay work taught him to be
disciplined.
DJ Leehleza introduced the Black
and White party in the Govan Mbeki
Municipality and his first event in 2014 sold
820 tickets.
His love for music, combined with
dedication, saw him getting bookings
in other areas such as Gauteng, Ermelo
and other places where he also had the
opportunity to share the stage with deejays
such as Black Coffee, Cassper Nyovest and
Vinny Da Vinci.
“This year I began to see that things are
going well with me when I was selected to
be a resident deejay at various venues,” said
DJ Leehleza.
‘I am learning about production
and would like to have sponsors
to be a successful brand’
Though he is now a well known brand, he
still believes that Leandra and the rest of the
Govan Mbeki Municipal residents helped
him to be where he is, especially his friends
who dedicated their time and resources to
make sure he arrives at gigs in time though
he does not own a car.
He said Leandra (London) people will
always wait for him to perform, even when
he is scheduled to play at 2am during Spring
parties.
DJ Leehleza’s friends and fans label him
as someone who is always talkative, but is
always humbled and they believe it is what
keeps his fan base strong all the time.
When asked about his future plans in
music, he said he would love to see himself
as an international brand one day and he
will be able to perform for more than 100
000 people. His music was also promoted
by some of the well-known national radio
stations like Ikwekwezi fm.
“I am learning about production and
would like to have sponsors to be a
successful brand,” said DJ Leehleza.
He also believes he can be a great
radio presenter because of his
personality.
DJ Leehleza also co-owns
a company with Siyabonga
Xaba and will be performing
at a Spring party in Secunda,
Lilian Ngoyi Stadium on
Saturday, 10 September.
Friday, 12 August he
will be at Nesto Lounge.

Nóg ’n huis in vlamme
SECUNDA - ’n Paartjie wat na Lydenburg
op pad was om te gaan stem, het moontlik
die lewe van ’n jong ma en haar kind gered.
Me. Alta Horn en haar man het op 3
Augustus omstreeks 4.29vm verby ’n huis
in Gerrit Maritzstraat verby gery en vlamme
gesien.
Die motorhuis was toe reeds afgebrand en
die vlamme het na die huis beweeg.
Me. Horn het die brandweer geskakel,
maar daar was geen antwoord nie.
Hulle het het na die brandweerstasie
gejaag om hulp te ontbied.
’n Vroue-offisier het uiteindelik by die
brandende huis opgedaag nadat sy twee keer
verby die huis gery het.
Die brandweerbakkie het ’n lekkende
waterpyp gehad en die offisier was in ’n
T-hemp en broek geklee.
Na wat soos ’n ewigheid vir me. Horn
gevoel het, het nog hulp opgedaag en kon
die brand geblus word.
Mnr. Nico Ferreira wat in dié huis bly, het
nagskof gewerk toe hy die oproep ontvang
het dat sy huis brand.
Hy het gesê dat hy dankbaar is dat iemand
betyds hulp kon kry omdat sy vrou en kind
(4) nog geslaap het. Die vuur het al die
4-jarige se speelgoed verwoes, asook al die
Ferreira’s se ekstra komberse.
Die oorsaak van die brand is onbekend en
forensiese toetse word nog gedoen.

rekenaargesondheidlesings te kry.
Dié dienste is gratis aangebied.
Me. Lynette Victor, organiseerder, het gesê
dat die gemeenskap se deelname van dié
projek ’n sukses gemaak het.
“Die dag is spesifiek gereël om iets
terug te ploeg in die gemeenskap en om
dankie te sê.” Verskeie plaaslike mediese
dokters en spesialiste het ook hul dienste
vrywillig aangebied om raad aan mense oor
gesondheidsvrae te gee.
“Dis-Chem Apteek Secunda was een van
die borge van die dag.
“Hulle het die glukose- en

SECUNDA - The accident that claimed the
life of Mr Robert Wilson on 30 July, has left
Mr GC Prinsloo with severe injuries, but
stable.
Mr Prinsloo had a leg amputated on
1 August at the Milpark Hospital in
Johannesburg.
The accident happened on the R580 road
between Secunda and Evander.
Mr Prinsloo was helping Mr Wilson move
and they were on their way to return the
rented trailer when they stopped next to the
road.
Both men were outside the car, apparently
working on the trailer, when a driver coming
from Secunda smashed first into the trailer,
then the men and the car.
Mr Wilson died on the scene and Mr
Prinsloo was rushed to Mediclinic Highveld,
before being transferred to Milpark Hospital
later in the day.
His other injuries include a fractured
shoulder, facial fractures and severe injuries
to his remaining leg.
According to Mr Prinsloo’s wife, he is
awake intermittently.
“Doctors tried to save the leg, but in the
end they had to amputate it at the knee.
“He had another operation on 4 August,
because he had fractured his jawbone.
“Initially they thought he had broken his
cheekbones, but when the swelling came
down they saw it was his jawbone.
“He is still drowsy and confused and
doctors have not yet told him about the
amputated leg.
“I am just grateful that he is alive, he
opens his eyes when I speak to him, but
because of all the medication and his facial
injuries, has not yet spoken.”
According to his doctors, Mr Prinsloo
has not sustained any severe injuries to the
brain or internal organs and he stands a good
chance of recovery.
His wife is thankful for the team at
Milpark who are treating him and has faith
in his doctors.
“They tell me he is getting better every
day and each day is one step closer to having
him back.
“All I can do is say thank you that he is
alive.”
Her husband’s doctors told her that he
will not undergo any further surgery for
now, as they can not risk giving him more
anesthetics right now, and want to allow his
body to begin healing before they operate
again.
Mr Prinsloo works as a mine operator at a
local colliery and has no children.
The driver who caused the accident, fled
the scene but later handed himself over to
the police who opened a docket.

TRICHARDT - Laerskool Trichardt se
personeel het leerlinge en ouers vir drie
aande met hul weergawe van Sneeuwitjie

Volgens die skool is dié konsert nie net
vir geldinsameling nie,
maar ook vir spanbou
onder die personeel
gereël.
Die konsert was propvol skertsende en
relevante humor en die skare het veral die
plaaslike gevoel van die opvoering geniet.
Daar was verskeie kinkels in die
storiekabel en nonne, dwergies, spieëls
wat terugpraat, Cruella de Ville, Shrek en

McDonald’s contributes
to football development
Levhuwani Matumba
HIGHVELD - Kiriyatswane Secondary
School will represent the district at the
McDonald’s Soccer Schools Festival.
The tournament is hosted by Govan
Mbeki Municipality and will take place at
the eMbalenhle Sasol Club on Saturday, 13
August.
The McDonald’s Mpumalanga
coordinator, Mr Terrence Kobo, said schools
from six municipalities in Limpopo and four
Mpumalanga municipalities will take part in
the soccer festival.
All the soccer grounds will be flooded
with supporters and parents who will be
transported by City to City buses from their
districts to the venue.
Kiriyatswane emerged as the district
champions during the play-offs that took
place at Kinross Sasol Club on 17 June.
“We are excited about the new league
format which will not only reach children in
schools, but also provide the opportunity for
the parents and communities to be part of the
festivities while supporting their children.
“The soccer festival will also allow
children to showcase their football talent
among their peers from different provinces,”
said Mr Sechaba Motsieloa, Corporate
Affairs Director: McDonald’s South Africa.
The league also provides the opportunity
for teachers and coaches to be trained
at the soccer festival coaching clinics
in partnership with the Koninklijke
Nederlandse Voetbalbond - Dutch Football
Association World Coaches programme.
Sasfa president, Mr Mandla (Shoes)
Mazibuko, said: “This has been a six year
standing partnership and was extended for a
new three-year cycle.
“We are really proud to witness the
young players’ dreams realise through the
McDonald’s U/14 Schools League.
“We will continue to provide structures
for schools and children to develop their
football skills at grassroots level,” said the
president.
The nine provincial winners will
proceed to the McDonald’s U/14 Schools
League national finals in Gauteng from 29
September to 1 October.
Andries Spies vertolk die rol van die koning.

Cross Country Mpumalanga
Championship moved to Secunda
SECUNDA - The end of the 2016 Cross
Country League has arrived and at the two
final leagues held over the weekend, many
athletes participated and it was clear to see
that the competition for the Mpumalanga
Championship on 13 August will be heated.
Organisers from Athletics Mpumalanga
informed athletes and supporters that the
venue for the Mpumalanga Championship
has changed.
It had to be moved from Hoërskool
Ligbron in Ermelo to Hoërskool Secunda
in Secunda due to unforeseen scheduling
conflicts.
Hoërskool Ligbron needs the use of their
grounds for the Beeld Trophy rugby games,
which were only finalised late in July.
All the arrangements for the
championships is well on track.
Although all athletes are welcome to
run on the day, only athletes who conform
to the minimum criteria will be taken into
consideration for the Mpumalanga team that
will take part in the SA Championship on 10
September in George.
No athlete will be allowed to participate in
any race with his or her Mpumalanga attire.
Athletes should wear their school or club
attire or risk being stopped at the call room.
U/21 athletes will not have their own
separate race and will participate in the U/23
group.
For more information, send an email to
[email protected].
Mr Neil Parsons from Bethal is the new chairman of the Gert Sibande District. Here he
received honorary membership at a previous meeting.
