"La Cenerentola" is Rossini's take on the Cinderella story - no fairy godmother or magic tricks, but ugly sisters, a charming prince and bracelets rather than glass slippers to help the d nouement! Appropriately enough, Rossini began work on the opera on Christmas Day 1816 and, if not as well known as The Barber of Seville, it is in no way inferior - and this is a marvelous performance with Cecilia Bartoli in the title role. The production is a traditional one with evocative sets and delightful costumes whilst it's hard to imagine the music being better done.

28a) Christmas Gift Suggestions Power balance bracelets Power Balance bands - the latest 'must have' - the perfect Xmas present for young, old, male and female. Available at 26 on Park. For info call 077 715 3584. Made to last, this durable, 100% Surgical Grade Silicone wristband can go anywhere you do. Made with a stretch feature that extends easily over your hand, you'll love the style and comfort it provides. Complete with two Power Balance holograms, this sporty and fun band goes with everything. Find your size and see where the day takes you. What is Power Balance? Power Balance is Performance Technology designed to work with your body's natural energy field. Founded by athletes, Power Balance is a favorite among elite athletes for whom balance, strength and flexibility are important. How Does the Hologram Work? Power Balance is based on the idea of optimizing the body's natural energy flow, similar to concepts behind many Eastern philosophies. The hologram in Power Balance is designed to resonate with and respond to the natural energy field of the body. What Do Power Balance Users Say? The benefits of Power Balance's performance technology are being enjoyed by hundreds of elite athletes around the world. Tens of thousands of Power Balance fans around the world - from pro athletes to regular people - report having experienced excellent balance, strength and flexibility when wearing a Power Balance product. Why Was Power Balance Created? For centuries many people - including practitioners of many Eastern philosophies - have practiced different methods to seek to optimize the body's natural energy flow. Power Balance was created as an easy and affordable method for the public to enjoy. The idea and subsequent investigation of ways to seek to optimize the body's energy flow is not a new concept. It has been pursued in many ways over hundreds of years. Power Balance has created products designed to respond with your body's natural energy flow in a simple and affordable way. Will Wearing Power Balance Make Me Stronger, More Balanced and Gain Greater Flexibility? Power Balance will not make you stronger than you are, but is designed to help make you as strong as you should be by interacting with your body's natural energy flow. What Do Professional Athletes Say? We have heard from hundreds of fitness professionals, coaches and personal trainers who tell us they have experienced benefits from Power Balance for themselves, their clients and teams. Where/How Is It Made? The holograms are purchased and programmed in the USA. The silicone/neoprene wristbands are manufactured in China. How Long Does It Last? The holograms are designed to last indefinitely. Will The Wristbands Work For Everyone? While we have received testimonials and responses from around the world about how Power Balance has helped people, there is no assurance it can work for everyone.

Hillside. Tel 247929 ( Hillside) Bulawayo Cell 091 2 331 441 (Pembroke) WRIGHTS NURSERY NEWS LETTER 1/12 Our November rains were generally very light (we had 75mm of largely small showers) but December has seen the arrival of proper heavy soaking rain. This heavy rain soaks down deep and gets to the roots of our trees and bigger shrubs, which were all suffering some what. Last month I mentioned 'roof water' and how to utilize it better. The other big source of water we can capture is the runoff from areas with impervious hard standing like roads, drive ways, paved areas, tennis courts and entertainment areas. All these area shed large quantities of water, which should ideally be channeled back into our gardens. Putting in run off drains along your driveway is one way to harvest this resource. I have seen many folk capture rainwater from tar roads by re-directing water from storm drains into their own gardens. When you see how much water goes bucketing down the roads and drains after a big storm you start to think how you could tap into this supply. These potentially large volumes of water, that could be captured in ones garden, are especially useful to build up underground water supplies. WHAT TO DO IN DECEMBER Your spring garden planning is now coming into its own and your main job is to have your garden looking at its best for the Holidays. We are now in between seasons and there is not much new work you can do. Routine things to do in December: Keep up with your mowing and sharpen your mower blades at least once a month. Weeds are growing fast now and need regular sorting out. If the weeds are getting away from you it may worth trying a chemical herbicide for a quick result. Pavers, drive ways, parking areas can all be treated with a non-selective weed killer like Drive Weeder, Round Up or Ridder. (They all contain glysophate) Mix at the rate of 30mls per liter. Roses should now go onto a twice monthly fungicide routine using products like Diathane M45, Copper-oxychloride or Special Fungicide. I spray one product for one month and then alternate the next month to minimize building up resistance. Spray your Amaryllis, Clivias, Agapanthus and other lilies with Dimthoate to control the Lily borer. ( A black and yellow caterpillar that can eat the heart out of your lilies. Keep up with regular pruning to build a dense and well shaped plant. ECO/ENVIRO The ideal soils contain good quantities of both humus and nutrition. WHAT IS HUMUS? Any decayed organic material. It should be well rotted and dark in colour. (Fresh organic material, including stable waste, is harmful to your plants). Compost should not be sieved too fine for general work as it will break down too fast. Composts and manures have a life of about 6 months in your soil before they break down completely. WHAT DOES IT DO? Humus gives 'body' to your soil but has very little real nutrition. (It could be likened to having plenty of fiber in ones diet.) This 'body' allows for: Improved water penetration. Improved water retention. Lightens heavy soil. Builds light, sandy soil. Regulates the supply of inorganic fertilizer. Builds the good soil micro-organisms and bacteria. Slowly builds up the nutritional levels Continuous use of compost in your garden will build up your soils in an environmentally sustainable way. With a more healthy soil, you will have less pests and diseases and therefore less spraying of chemicals. How ever composts and manures have very little real nutrition ie about 1% SO WHAT ABOUT NUTRITION? BASICS Your soil needs four main ingredients for good growth o Humus or compost/manure - to give body to your soil o Nitrogen (N) - to promote growth and good final yields o Phosphate (P) - to give plants a good start, strong roots and shoots o Potash (K) - to induce healthy growth, resistance to disease and drought whilst improving the quality of all crops. FERTILIZERS All fertilizers should show the ratios of N, P and K on them. This indicates their best usage ie. Comp D - Ideal general garden fertilizer for vegetables, flowers, trees (8:14:10) and even lawns Comp C - Ideal for extra feeding on plants that yield more ie. roses, (6:17:15) tomatoes, pot plants Comp X - The original lawn fertilizer but tends to burn lawns if not (20:10:5) watered immediately Comp J - Now recommended more for lawns than Comp X. Better (15:5:15) balance of nutrients and less likely to burn the lawn. SSP - 18 % pure phosphate. Essential to start all your garden plantings with. AN - 34 % pure nitrogen. Very strong and should be used sparingly and appropriately. You can see from the %'s that there is a great deal more nutrition in chemical fertilisers then in composts. As you build up your soils with compost you will see will see increasing levels of soil nutrition and you will be able to decrease your use of chemical fertilisers. WHATS IN THE NURSERY? We have a good selection of plant gift ideas ranging from potted plants, succulent pots, Pony tail palms, Yule logs, Reindeer, Sleighs and Stars. FAQ'S IN NOVEMBER We had many enquiries about "why are my fruit trees dropping their immature fruits?" If your watering is adequate then the most likely reason is that your fruit tree does not have enough nutrition to grow out the crop. You need to fertilise to get a good crop. Happy Gardening and enjoy the Holidays. Dave
