1) Editorial
Have you ever heard the term 'gibbous moon', and wondered what it means?
2) Notices and Events IMPORTANT VOTING INFORMATION!!! "A few people have been asked about the voting system and in particular whether one has to vote for a single party of whether one can vote for different parties. Each voter will be given 3 separate ballot papers: one for the Presidential election, one for the Parliamentary election and one for the Council election. They will be different colours although we don't know what those colours will be at this time. The Presidential ballot will only have the Presidential candidates on it - that is Morgan Tsvangirai, Robert Mugabe, Welshman Ncube and Dumiso Dabengwa. Each voter must then vote for their choice of President by marking a cross inside the box next to the candidate of their choice. No other mark must be put anywhere on the ballot - if there are any other marks then the ballot may be disregarded and treated as a spoilt ballot. Some have asked for example whether they can tick the person they like and put a cross against the name of the person they do not like. If they do that their ballot will be disregarded. - SO ONLY PUT ONE CROSS IN THE BOX NEXT TO THE NAME OF YOUR PREFERRED CANDIDATE. Once the Presidential ballot has been marked each voter must then move on to mark the Parliamentary ballot. In most constituencies there will be over 5 candidates - the names of all those standing in that constituency. Each voter must once again put a single cross in the box next to the name of his or her preferred candidate. No other marks must be put anywhere on the ballot. Some have asked whether a voter can vote for a person from a different party from the Presidential candidate they have voted for. For example people wonder whether they can vote for eg Morgan Tsvangirai for President but for a person from another party (ie from a party other than MDC T) for Parliament and/or Council. The answer is YES. You can vote for a candidate from a different party for Parliament and for Council. So a voter has 3 choices - for example he or she can vote for the MDC T President, the ZANU PF MP candidate in that Constituency and the MDC Council candidate in that Ward. Of course a voter can also vote for the Presidential, Parliamentary and Council candidates all from one party if he or she chooses. But the important point is that each voter has three completely separate choices to make and if they like one Parliamentary or Council candidate for example from another party it is each voter's right to elect the individual. In fact it is important for Zimbabweans to elect the best persons to all offices and they will not necessarily all come from one party. Once the Parliamentary and Presidential ballot have been completed each voter must then complete the Council ballot in the same way. After completing the marking of all 3 of the ballots each voter must then fold each of the 3 ballots separately and then place them in the correct boxes for President, Parliament and Council respectively."

This is the world's wildest continent as you've never seen it before, from the Atlas Mountains to the Cape of Good Hope, and each episode promises intimate eye-to-eye encounters with extraordinary wildlife. ELIZABETH I Thursdays 1 & 8 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. Helen Mirren and Jeremy Irons star in 'Elizabeth I', a two-part series that explores the intersection of the private and public life of Elizabeth I (Mirren) in the latter half of her reign. DONIZETTI: ROBERTO DEVEREUX Friday 2 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. "Roberto Devereux", one of the finest of Donizetti's seventy or so operas, is based on the intense, tangled relationship between Queen Elizabeth I and the Earl of Essex, who was beheaded for treason in 1601 and the role of the queen is one of the strongest in the bel canto soprano repertoire. BRITTEN: GLORIANA Friday 9 AugustRobert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. "Gloriana" was Britten's Coronation opera, first performed on 8 June 1953 and next heard in Bulawayo in August of that year as part of the Rhodes Centenary Festival. Like "Roberto Devereux", it traces the downfall of the Earl of Essex who, presuming upon his privilege as the Queen's favourite, forces tragedy upon them both. With his strong sense of theatre, Britten vividly depicts the Queen's dilemma and combines scenes of great pageantry with moments of private reflection 3) Roses And Raspberries 4) Congratulations 5) Condolences/In Memorium/Wreath Funds DEATH NOTICE It is with great sadness that we mourn the death of Fanie Boshoff.

Big Sky has researched the issue from a visitor's perspective and this information should be useful for motorists preparing to travel to Gauteng. Background: The South African National Roads Agency (Sanral) is preparing to implement electronic tolling (e-tolls) in Gauteng to recoup money spent upgrading the province's highways. e-Tolling was to be implemented in June 2011 but has been delayed through ongoing legal action and civic action. However the expectation is that e-toll's will prevail and be implemented within a few months. At this time only the freeways around Gauteng are affected. Drivers with an e-tag will pay R0.30c a kilometre and Sanral says that 90% of motorists will pay less than R200.00 a month. Sanral is using Vehicle Licence Plate Number (VLPN) recognition, set up at gantries along all e- roads. Payment is through VLPN or e-tags combined with VLPN. How this affects the drivers of non-SA vehicles ... The legislation applies to all users of Gauteng's e-roads, including South African vehicles from other provinces (Limpopo, KZN, etc.) and non-SA vehicles (Zimbabwe, Botswana, etc.). During a number of calls to the Sanral call centre, we were assured that the Vehicle Licence Plate Number (VLPN) recognition system will identify number plates from neighbouring countries. We are told that any vehicle using e-roads without paying for their use will be identified through VLPN and classified as 'a vehicle of special interest'. The website states 'Failure to pay the toll fee within seven days means discounts will be forfeited and enforcement actions may be instituted'. Ominously, there is a 'Violations Processing Centre' ... Only time will tell if the VLPN will actually recognise non-SA number plates, or what form 'enforcement' may take. The worst case scenario is that a 'vehicle of special interest' will be pulled over by law enforcement officers and the driver given a hard time. Our advice to Zimbabweans intending to drive on Gauteng's e-roads is to comply with the legislation. Frequent visitors to Gauteng: Regular users of e-roads should purchase and fit an e-tag, and register an e-toll account. Benefits of registering an e-tag include receiving a discount on e-toll tariffs and the e-tag can be used at the Bakwena Tollgates on the N1, from Bela Bela (Warmbaths) to Pretoria. Infrequent visitors to Gauteng: Infrequent users can pay the toll by registering their Vehicle License Plate Number or by buying a Day Pass at an e-toll Customer Service Outlet or online. (However by choosing to get an e-tag and registering an e-toll account, infrequent visitors can also benefit from the applicable discounts). A Day Pass is valid for 30 days from purchase, and for 24 hours once activated. Costs are R50.00 for a light vehicle and R30.00 for a motorcycle. For more information and to get registered ... Visit www.sanral.co.za for comprehensive information on how to buy an e-tag, register an e-toll account and more. The site has an excellent interactive map showing the gantry points and e-toll Customer Service Outlets - temporary, permanent and the centres located along the Gauteng e-road, and an e-toll calculator. Big Sky Supplies can email readers a useful Sanral brochure 'How do I get e-toll ready?', with all the information you need to get started (1Mb .pdf file). Email Sean at bigsky@zol.co.zw for a copy. Sanral can be emailed directly at info@sa-etoll.co.za As mentioned, our advice is to comply with the legislation. The options are to wait until actual implementation and then get ready, or drivers can prepare in the meanwhile either online or during visits to Gauteng. Either way, we hope this information is useful to all drivers of non-SA vehicles visiting Gauteng. AUSTRALIAN AID Report all water leaks to the 24 Hour City of Bulawayo Call Centre.

Dear Friends, This is a short note to update you on the fantastic progress that has been made in building the new game fence around the Whovi Game Park section of the Rhodes Matopos National Park. As of Friday July 19, over 11km of bonnox fence has been built in the north-western sector of the park, starting near Bambata Hill and following the boundary until we have nearly reached Badja Hill (see the map attached to this email. The solid line represents the completed section while the dotted line shows the rest of the journey). The first kilometer was donated by National Fencing while Fence Africa have been contracted by the Matobo Rhino Initiative Trust to build this first 10km of fencing. There are 10 villagers from the local community working under the supervision of contractors from Fence Africa. The National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority have granted the Trust permission to build the fence around the Matopos and we value our partnership with them. This email is not, however, any sort of official communication on their behalf. Please see the attached file for pictures and short notes on the actual fence. I have kept the picture resolution low because I don't want to clog up your server. I would like to ask for your continued support and encouragement. We still need further funding to finish the job; no amount is too small! Please get in touch with me if you are able to help. Please like us on Facebook too! This is where most updates will be announced first. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Matobo-Rhino-Protection-Initiative/111769642329690 We are in this for the long haul since the main aim is to restore the fence around the entire National Park within the next couple of years. With best wishes and hope to see you in the Matopos soon. Yours truly, Paul With thanks to our generous cash sponsors thus far: PPC Zimbabwe, National Fencing, Fence Africa, Gracy Travel, Edgars, L.

Are you suffering from dry, itchy skin even though you are applying lotion everyday? The soap you buy at your local supermarket may be the cause of your never ending dry skin. 'Soap' as we know it is actually made of petroleum by-products and is in fact detergent which may have your skin tight, dry and itchy. Not only does regular bar soap contain lye and petroleum, they also contain drying alcohols. Glycerine soap is the answer. Glycerine is a humectant, drawing moisture to your skin, allowing it to remain hydrated and soft. Beyond hydrating your skin, glycerine is also known to be a natural remedy for yeast and fungal infections, such as eczema and psoriasis. It is especially good for sensitive skins. Glycerin soap does not contain synthetic ingredients that will cause skin irritations. It keeps your skin looking and feeling healthy and soft. Treat yourself, or a loved one to the benefits of glycerine soap. We have three fragrant choices, ORANGE & SANDLEWOOD, LEMON & VANILLA or HONEY at only $1.50 per 100g bar. Get your skin summer ready!
