Winter Warmth



Each year the Gift of the Givers Foundation together with East Coast Radio Durban, provide blankets for the needy! My wife's Standard Bank Branch has been involved with this project for years and each year distribute hundreds of blankets to local communities.
Last year we visited the Sive School for the Deaf in the mountains off Cedarville to give each pupil a warm blanket!

If ever there was a place where Lotto is badly needed it is there!

The icy cold chill that has filled the air over the last few weeks may have been welcomed by some, but for many it means a fight for survival. Join East Coast Radio and The Hub as we help spread the warmth.
Winter Warmth is East Coast Radio’s annual CSI initiative to blanket the less fortunate in our province, during the season’s two coldest months. The station embarks on a collection drive over six weeks in an attempt to gather enough blankets for distribution throughout KZN. But we cannot do it alone…donate a blanket and help bring warmth and comfort to thousands of bitterly cold families this winter.
East Coast Radio is proud to announce that The Hub has come on board as the official sponsor of Winter Warmth 2009. To make donating easier and more convenient for you, The Hub stores throughout KZN are being used as drop off points for blankets. Making a difference is so simple, especially when The Hub is giving you 10% off your next purchase when you make a donation to the campaign at any of their stores!
“Durban has always been lucky enough to boast warm winters. Along the East Coast, however there are tens of thousands throughout KZN that are not so lucky. Each winter east coasters do their bit by donating blankets and cash to those that are literally, out in the cold. We look forward to that warmth and support again this year,” said East Coast Radio’s Marketing Manager, Naz Khan.
Winter Warmth 2008 was a huge success because of the incredible support and generosity of East Coasters last year. Thanks to individuals, companies and schools, East Coast Radio distributed 35 771 blankets, valued at R1 073 130, 00 to beneficiaries in KZN.
The campaign would not reach nearly as many people without our facilitators, Rotary and Durban Deliveries who work around the clock to ensure that the donations get to the right people.
East Coast Radio appeals to you to reach out and make a donation. Donate a blanket or cash to purchase new blankets and the Winter Warmth team will make sure that every single blanket reaches a deserving beneficiary during the six week campaign.

Bloggers Etiquette

  1. If you link to a site, try to visit that site at least once every 2-4 weeks.
    1. Always leave a comment on these sites.
  2. Always be honest and encouraging in your comments.
  3. Do not use gimmicks to attract readers. This will diminish the worth of what you are saying.
  4. If you give a blog more than a casual glance, leave a comment.
  5. If you see a blog that could have potential and you have an idea as to how to make it better, leave constructive comments.
  6. If you find a blog that deeply interests you, link to it.
    1. Announce in a comment in that blog that you have done so and invite the author to visit your blog.
    2. It is okay to ask for reciprocity but do not make your link contingent upon this.
  7. Encourage new bloggers, especially the ones that represent interesting content.
    1. Offer to swap links. (This differs from #6. I believe that with a new blogger, offering to help with a link to their site should be reciprocated.)
  8. When leaving a comment on a blog for the first time, let the author know how you found his/her blog, especially if you found it through a link on another blog.
  9. If you want to increase readership, you have to read other blogs and leave comments. "Do onto others as you would have them do onto you."
  10. If you reprint another’s work, be sure that you give credit to the author and link to the author’s site. Most authors, including me, do not mind if you reprint their work as long as correct credit is given and a link-back is established.
    1. Be careful of copyright infringements.
  11. Plagiarism is bad.......very bad.
  12. Language and appropriateness is difficult to discuss. What is appropriate to one can be inappropriate to another. The same goes for language.
    1. You do have the ability (“Flag Blog") to notify a Blogger of objectionable content.
    2. However, just like with television, you have the power to not visit objectionable blogs.

I have created this as a working document. I know that I have missed some points. Please, if you can add to this list, leave me a detailed comment and if I agree, I will update this post.

Motorists in SA's Rights!

Know your rights as a motorist….but don’t believe everything you read!

28 06 2007

Know Your Rights Received an informative email lately from what appears to be a reliable source, only to find it is a fraud? I was forwarded an email yesterday titled “Roadside arrest on outstanding fines – Know your rights” This was sent with the expectation that it could provide invaluable advice for visitors to the Road Safety and Arrive Alive Blog.

The document appeared as a notice to members of SAVRALA, the South African Vehicle Renting and Leasing Association. It included information for motorists on their rights when stopped at a road block, and I would like to quote these points:

They can only arrest you if:

1. They have the original warrant for your arrest there with them. A copy isn’t good enough, saying it’s at the station isn’t good enough either. They have to show it to you there and then (if they have it, check plan “b”).

I deleted the rest because it took up a lot of space, follow the links above for the rest of the story!

Kokstad Sneeu




Gedurende 2008 en sommer laat in die winter eers het die sneeu een Vrydag geval.
Lia moes gaan werk maar ek kon nie die boom verwyder nie en buitendien kon ek nie met ons ou tjorrie dit waag op die ys nie!

My Ma het my geleer...

Ma het my geleer hoe om te bid. Elke aand, nadat sy my in die bed gesit het, het sy gesê: “Dankie Here hy is in die bed.”

En “Jy moet bid dat daardie kol op die mat uit is as ek vanaand by die huis kom.”

Sy het my geleer van “time travel”. “Ek sal jou tot in volgende week in klap!”

Sy het my geleer pa’s is slimmer en ryker as ma’s. “Gaan vra jou pa!”

Sy het my geleer oor fotosintese. “Lyk dit vir jou of geld op my rug groei?”

Sy het my geleer om altyd nederig en Klein te wees. “Mannetjie!!!”

Sy het my van die weer geleer. “Dit lyk of ‘n dekselse orkaan jou kamer getref het!”

Sy het my geleer van fauna en flora. “Moenie vir my vertel pêrredrolle is vye nie!”

Sy het my geleer om myself te ontdek. “Hou op om jou soos jou pa te gedra!”

Sy het my die wetenskap van osmose geleer. “Hou jou mond en eet jou kos!”

Sy het my geleer van uithouvermoë. “Jy sal by daardie tafel sit totdat jy jou spinasie opgeëet het!”

Sy het my geleer van sintuie. “Kinners word gesien en nie gehoor nie!”

Sy het my geleer van humor. “Hou aan lag, dan gee ek jou iets om oor te huil ook!”

Sy het my van jaloesie geleer. “Daar is duisende arm kinnertjies wat ouers soos joune begeer!”

Sy het geleer dat daar ‘n plek en ‘n tyd vir alles is. “As julle mekaar wil vermoor, gaan doen dit buite! Ek’t nou net hier skoongemaak!”

Sy het my wiskunde geleer. “Sit jy alweer en tanne tel!”

Sy het my logika geleer. “Want ek sê so, dis hoekom!”

Sy het my geleer dat wonderwerke nog kan gebeur. “Ek sal jou klap dat jy jou antie vir ‘n eendvoël aansien as jy my weer terugantwoord!”

Gossip

If it’s very painful for you to criticize your friends - you’re safe in doing it. But if you take the slightest pleasure in it, that’s the time to hold your tongue.

pop048

My Name Is Gossip

I have no respect for justice

I maim without killing

I break hearts and ruin lives

I am cunning and malicious and gather strength with age

The more I am quoted the more I am believed

I flourish at every level of society

My victims are helpless

They cannot protect themselves against me

because I have no name and no face.

To track me down is impossible.

The harder you try the more elusive I become

I am nobody’s friend…

Once I tarnish a reputation, it is never the same

I topple governments and ruin marriages

I end ministries set up by God

I ruin careers and cause sleepless nights, heartache and indigestion.

I spawn suspicion and generate grief.

I make innocent people cry in their pillows.

Even my name hisses.

I am called Gossip

Church gossip

Office gossip

Shop gossip

Party gossip

Telephone gossip

Online gossip :mrgreen:

Celebrity gossip

I make headlines and headaches!

Before You Repeat A Story, Ask Yourself… Is it true? Is it fair? Is it necessary? Would I want it done to me?

Killing with words …..

Take a minute….

Think ….

There is so much good in the worst of us,
And so much bad in the best of us,
That it hardly becomes any of us
To talk about the rest of us.

Found this somewhere

If someone should hurt you

And say a thing unkind;

Remember that I write to you;

And keep these thoughts in mind.

For everyone that makes you cry

There are three to make you smile;

And a smile will last a long, long time,

But a tear just a little while.

Don’t let someone who hates the world

Cause you to hate it too,

Behind the clouds is a golden sun,

And a sky that’s full of blue.

If someone said a thing that’s cruel,

Don’t let it get to you;

Your achievements are greatly numbered,

And your faults are very few.

So if a certain person should act a certain way,

Think of those who Love You.

And don’t let it spoil your day!

To the world, you may just be somebody…

but to somebody, you may be the world.

Sneeu




OK so dis Februarie en die warmste maand van die jaar en hoekom nou oor sneeu praat! Wel met die 'global warming' wat aangaan mag daar die winter dalk nie meer sneeu hier rond wees nie!
Rachel het uit London geskryf en vertel van al die sneeu aldaar!
Maar ons kry nooit die soort hier nie!

Die Drakensberge is hier naby en is gedurende die wintermaande meestal vol sneeu!

Ek het nie 'n digital kamera nie so ek kan nie die mooi natuurskoon vaslê nie maar ek het 'n OU kamera en die bietjie wat ek het sal ek deel!

Bloglist

My Bloglist consist of some site that I visit on a regular basis!
I said some because I sometimes visit some 250 or more websites at one sitting.
When I start searching for Vista icons, or cartoons, or presentation stuff, or sites where my wife (and now Werner), wants learning materials or info on a specific subject the sites just popup and disappear like mist!

Playlist

My Playlist has some oldies and as soon as my sound on my Pc has been corrected I can hopefully listen to these songs!
Where can one get FREE mp3 songs to download!?

2009 Resolutions

Build great Dioramas
Learn Pc Programs
Travel Overseas
Write PowerPoint Lessons
Write more eBooks
Lose Weight
Get Fit

ChitsNuus

Vir amper x9 jaar het ek 'n ezine email tipe nuusbrief gehad met allerhande nuus oor websites en web dinge!
My leserstal het op een stadium oor die 600 beloop!
Dit het toe begin afskaal elke keer wanneer my komputer crash en ek vergeet het om my adresboek te save!
Einde 2006/7 het ek toe finaal die pen weggebêre en my toegespits op Scale Modelling om daardie leemte te vul!

Miskien sal ek weer eendag begin wanneer ek 'n website kan staanmaak!
