Bulawayo Morning Mirror Edition 667 - 5/1/2016


In this edition


1) Editorial

2016 let us not be coy !

It is the year that we shall be LEAPing for joy !

Words .... Someone once said we are known by the words we use.

Allow me to talk a little about words, those lovely, jumping, laughing,
eager little marks we make on paper or tap onto the screen.

Some words run softly, on tippy-toe, almost soundless, others clump around
like a football team milling around on the cement floor of the dressing
shed.

Some words soothe like cold cream on sunburn, while others can set your
blood pounding.

Swearing thrown into a sentence, denotes little but an inability to think or
pause meaningfully in an attempt to find an appropriate adjective.

There are words so rounded at the edges and softened by wear that they no
longer words at all. And some sacred words that have become swear words,
their meanings soiled with improper unthinking and careless use.

Some words stick like burrs and punish at a touch. They are the words we
never forget, insults and denigrating words that destroy our egos and
sometimes even our lives.

But then there are also words that nurse the ego and heal the heart.

There are even some words that remain forever unspoken, clamped in a throat
that aches to let them out ... And often they are the most mean full words
of all.

The choice is ours, words spoken or written. If we use them well and care
how we put them together, if we think before we open our mouths or tap the
keys, we will do more than simply rescue language, we will begin to
communicate more meaningfully with each other.

When we talk with purpose and pleasure to each other in this marvelous
language we have been given as our birthright, then anything is possible and
most of it will be very good.

Take one radical stand and commit to civility in all communication. Compose
every text or email as if it were addressed to someone you love.

You are a person with a point of view that counts - use it ! And if you
choose the right words, you could change the world you live in. xxx

May the rest of your life, be the best of your life !!

All the best for 2016 !!

MOZZIES !!l
The mosquito infestation has reached a new level in Bulawayo!!

I am not sure what more we can do The Municipality have been amazing. They arrive every week to spray the breeding areas in our suburb. (The next door pool has been empty for ages, if I climb on the tank and look over the wall, I can almost hear the buzz of the breeding mosquitoes in the slimy green cess poo left by the non existent rain!!)

We even filled in our fish pond to stop the invasion, which happily stopped that mellifluous sound of bullfrogs too!

We hung up and enormous mosquito net over the bed, it is glorious, with much sewing and modification, our bed now looks like an elegantly draped Hollywood Four Poster!

I even moved the fan so it was situated inside the net, to blow away the mosquitoes!!

HeeHoo purchased some zappers on Amazon. HeeHoo has an 'Executioner Pro' and I have a plain old 'Executioner'. They look like badminton racquets, but are really battery operation electric incinerators ! Woe betide if you hit your knee or your computer in error....

We lie on our beds, under the mosquito net, watching the telly through a fine mist of the net - Zappers in hand, as they still manage to worm their way in despite our heavily guarded mosquito fortress!!

The sound when you hit one is exquisite, it incinerates with a blitz sound, most satisfying!! HeeHoo still covers himself with Peaceful Sleep as they love the taste of him, especially after his years of research on Mosquitoes at Blair Research Laboratories way back in the dark ages!! He tells a horrifying tale of feeding the test mosquitos on his arm during 'feeding time' at the Lab, instead of taking the time to anaethetise a guinea pig as the feeding trough!!

Serves him right that mozzies love him!!

We can zap up to fifty mosquitoes a night, despite the spraying regime that we undertake with our trusty knapsack sprayer, none of the well known brands of mosquito insecticides work against Bulawayo Suburbs mosquitoes!!

When we are away the attack the poor kitty's ears!!

We had mosquitoes right through the winter even which is unusual....


ZIMBABWE WATCHDOG

How about this for a good start to the new year.
Coming in from the airport this morning - 1st January at 1 o'clock.
I was stopped at the usual roadblock and fined $10 for not having this years radio licence
They are really scraping the barrel!!!

Herald
Airtime recharge card ban looms: Government has given mobile phone companies six months to phase out recharge scratch cards and told food shops that kaylite packaging for food will be banned at the same time. Mobile phone companies should promote technologies that can be used instead of recharge cards, while food outlets were ordered to use biodegradable materials that were environment friendly. Litter was the biggest problem. The Government also wants a deposit on all beverage containers to give people an incentive to hand them back in instead of dumping them. Manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers of disposal diapers have to submit an 'environmental friendly action plan' within six months to deal with the challenge of wast. Fines for littering of up to level 3 ($20) and level 14 ($5 000) for illegal dumping would be imposed, while Government was also working on ways to introduce mandatory community service for everyone caught on the wrong side. However, hundreds of thousands of youths who had found employment in airtime recharge cards selling business, many firms that had invested heavily in technology to manufacture diapers, kaylite and other fragile commodities wrapping products are likely to suffer - Herald, Monday December 21




2) Notices and Events

PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO
THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING
Thursday 7 January 2016 in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
The Theory of Everything is the Oscar-winning story of the most brilliant and celebrated physicist of our time, Stephen Hawking (Eddie Redmayne). Little was expected from Hawking, a bright but shiftless student of cosmology, given just two years to live following the diagnosis of a fatal illness when he was 21. He became galvanized, however, by the love of Jane Wilde (Felicity Jones), an arts student also at Cambridge, and a relationship began that was dramatically to alter the course of their lives.

Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

VIENNA PHILHARMONIC NEW YEAR'S CONCERT
Friday 8 January 2016 in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
The annual New Year's Day Concert from the flower-filled Golden Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna has been a major event for more than seven decades and the first Friday of the New Year features last year's concert conducted by Zubin Mehta who was 25 when he first conducted the Vienna Philharmonic in 1961.
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval.

DOWNTON ABBEY
Thursdays 14, 21, 28 January and 4 February in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
In the sixth and final season, secrets and rifts threaten the unity of the family, while those below stairs continue to navigate social changes which put their futures in jeopardy. Will Mary choose the right path Will her sister Edith finally get a break ! Will Carson and Mrs.Hughes actually make it up the aisle And will Anna and Bates overcome the many hurdles that have been set before them This season offers all the highs and lows, joy and sorrow that viewers have grown to love, with the added excitement of discovering how it all wraps up!
Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

WAGNER: LOHENGRIN
Friday 15 January in the Robert Sibson Hall at N.B. 6.00 p.m.
Lohengrin is perhaps the most approachable of all Wagner's mature operas - Tchaikovsky certainly thought so and, having expressed reservations about Wagner's personality, wrote: 'but I cannot fail to do justice to his tremendous musical gift. This gift nowhere manifested itself so brightly as in Lohengrin. This opera will always be the crown in Wagner's oeuvre.' This production comes from Bayreuth and, as well as having an outstanding cast, actually 'takes both the romance and the tenth-century northern-European setting at face value.

Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval.

3) Congratulations



4) Condolences/In Memoriam/Wreath Funds

Mrs M.D Blaylock
The grief is inexplicable
The loss feels unbearable,
The bereavement seems never ending,
The lament seems to do nothing.
The pain is strong and relentless,
The hurt has rendered me helpless.
The damage is permanent,
Your death was my life's worst moment.
I miss you Mom
After your death, my whole world ,
has gone into a frightening void.
When I had you, I had it all.
Now everything is destroyed.
This is my repentance, my regret.
I know you can't hear me- but I know you are with Roger,
But I still want to say.
Mom I miss you and I am sorry,
Even though since your death,
It has been many years,
Whenever I think of you, it still brings me to tears.

I LOVE AND MISS YOU MOM and so wish I could turn the clock back.

Lynn

7) Bulawayo News

The recent announcement of an increase in Deposit Fines, and the gazetting of SI 129/2015, is of interest to your readers ...

Background to this update:

Statutory Instrument 154/2010 - Road Traffic (Construction, Equipment and Use) Regulations, was declared invalid and void in November 2012. SI 412/1972 came back into force. SI 129/2015 replaces SI 154/2010 and came into operation on 14 December 2015.

Secondly, Finance and Economic Development Minister Patrick Chinamasa announced in the National Budget for 2016 that Government will review traffic fines from 1 January, 2016. The Minister mentioned a number of offences which will attract fines of up to $100.00.

The maximum deposit fine a police officer can legally impose is $20.00 per offence. (A level 3 fine). A fine higher than level 3 can only be imposed by a magistrate after a court appearance.In order for ZRP personnel to accept roadside payment of a $100.00 fine, currently level 4, the Criminal Procedure & Evidence Act has to be amended.

Section 87 of SI 129/2015 lists the sections where on committing an offence, the motorist shall be liable, on conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 5. This section appeared in SI 154/2010 under section 88 - Offences and penalties, so although the exact listing of the various sections is different, there is nothing new in the addition of this section to SI 129/2015.

Therefore, until the law regarding level fines has been constitutionally amended, the Schedule of Deposit Fines issued in August 2013, and level of fines remain in effect and are referred to in our Cubbyhole Notes.

The attached update reflects the requirements of SI 129/2015 (Construction, Equipment and Use) Regulations, for the guidance of motorists.

We wish the readers of Morning Mirror a safe and incident-free Christmas holiday, and rewarding 2016.

Sean and the Big Sky team.


I would like to share our recent experience with your readers. We were responding to an ad for puppies that we found on-line (https://www.expatads.com/106-Zimbabwe/posts/14-Pets-Animals/304-Dogs-for-Sale) from Mr Garcia Diezraul based in Zambia who sent us photos of husky puppies available complete with micro-chips, all vaccinations etc. When we enquired as the cost we were told that the puppies were free and that we just had to pay for a flight to Harare (EURO 300) which could be arranged very easily by World Courier Express +237 664204562 (worldcourier_express@outlook.com) and that he had experience in doing this before etc etc.

We visited their website which said: Worldwide Oldest Established Pet shipping Agency Offering A Complete Service To Pet Owners Pet shipping, and pet transport services are provided by our experienced team of pet transportation professionals.

We believe our experience, and countless global resources allow us to achieve an unmatched level of personalized animal transport services.

We were very excited about the prospect of getting a pedigree puppy which my daughter had spent a lot of time looking for. We were asked to transfer the flight money into a Great Western Union account based in Cameroon. (email received from Kristen Ahmed (kristenahmed10@gmail.com) and the funds to be deposited into account name: Menkem Fuster Tabu.

Then we just had a feeling that it was all too slick and moving very fast so we did some research but we did not have a phone number for Mr Diezrau so we did some surfing and we sadly discovered that it was a scam. We were very angry and very upset. We had spent a lot of time and effort for it to be wasted. I really want to avoid this happening to any of your readers. We had a lucky escape, 300 Euros is a lot of money to loose, especially right before Christmas.
