South Africans Worldwide Newsletter

Would you believe it? The Search Engines picked up on my "fuel shortages "report last weekend - so for once the SAW Newsletter was a news-leader! Here's more...

In the aviation world, there’s doom & gloom amongst all users of Avgas* [*US acronym = Aviation Gasoline]. Excerpts found from various news reports:-

The refinery is being modified to meet the new cleaner air legislation with work expected to be completed by next Thursday.
Shell spokesman Dennis Matsane said Shell was importing 2000 tons of Avgas, which was expected to arrive on April 14, and a further 3000 tons was expected on April 24.

The problem started when Durban's South African Petroleum Refinery (Sapref), co-owned by BP and Shell, shut down production of Avgas at the beginning of the year when they had to make modifications in compliance of the new cleaner fuel legislation.

The refinery is being modified to meet the new cleaner air legislation with work expected to be completed by next Thursday.

There are only four Avgas manufacturers worldwide and following the closure of the Durban refinery, two others shut down for maintenance, leaving only one responsible for the world’s supply. At the same time two other Avgas refineries shut down for maintenance, leaving only the US refinery to meet global supply demands.

"This put strain on the system and now there's a huge demand on the refinery in the US to make enough Avgas," said Kader Jacobs, BP Aviation supply logistics manager.

Reports from all main SA centres indicate a serious rationing so as to keep essential emergency services operational. In the neighbouring countries around Southern Africa, the situation is even worse as they are totally dependant on receiving supplies from the South African refinery, or importers.

So we can but wish everyone affected good luck & hope that you survive this latest energy crunch.

A Policeman Who Made a Difference

"Thanks Sandy for another good story. As I read your story, I noted that this man had convictions of what is right and what is wrong. His testimony was - I felt a strong calling from God, and his message was clear to me:

"Stay focused on your purpose and don't get hung up on the process." I was there to stay and hoped that over time the people would begin to understand what I was really all about.

True honour, is earned, not just given to someone. This man is to be honored for his concern and determination to make life better for others. Good news, for sure...!!!

SA wine 'in danger'

Cape Town - South Africa is in danger of sliding off the list of the world's top 10 wine-making countries as it runs out of vineyard space, and needs to focus on niche markets instead, a wine industry expert said on Tuesday.

"We are ranked ninth in the world," by volume, said Su Birch, Wines of South Africa's chief executive, speaking at the showcase Cape Wine 2006 conference being held in Cape Town.

"We are going to slide out of the top ten in the next two to five years. We are going to be a small player and... we will have to compete at the top-end of the market and sell premium wines," she said.

Constellation buys Kumala wine

Cape Town - South Africa's largest wine export brand by volume, Kumala, looks set to become part of the world's biggest wine company, US-based Constellation Brands, as part of Constellation's proposed C$1.5bn buyout of Vincor of Canada.

After months of resisting takeover by Constellation, Vincor, the world's eighth largest wine producer, on Monday announced its directors had agreed in principle to a C$36.50 per share bid.

Kumala, developed by UK-based group Western Wines in South Africa and the UK, was purchased by Vincor in 2004 and is the largest wine brand by volume in the Vincor portfolio, complimenting higher-priced premium wines such as Jackson-Triggs and Inniskillin.

Zille to stop 'gravy train'

Cape Town mayor Helen Zille has ruled out a mooted R1m golden handshake for city manager Dr Wallace Mgoqi. Pleading confidentiality for not revealing what Monday's full council meeting will discuss regarding the continued tenure of Cape Town's city manager, mayor Helen Zille on Friday ruled out a mooted R1m golden handshake.

"This multi-party government is saying, we are drawing the line at the public purse being used as a piggy bank for golden handshakes.

Especially pre-arranged and pre-engineered golden handshakes, because Dr (Wallace) Mgoqi never had any intention of working with us from the beginning. And the public do not want their money used in that kind of cavalier fashion," Zille told a media briefing on negotiations surrounding Mgoqi's contract. Former ANC mayor Nomaindia Mfeketo extended Mgoqi's contract by one year, but the legality of the contract was now being contested by the DA-led city.

A Scream of South Africa's Pain

This submitted by Mike Preston

By Nora Kenworthy

CAPE TOWN, South Africa -- One night last month, just past midnight, in a small South African rural town outside Johannesburg, I awoke suddenly to the realization that five young men had entered my room through a window to rob the guesthouse in which I was staying. In an instant they had two pistols pressed against my forehead in the dark, their faces close to mine, whispering in butchered English to shut up.

After a year spent providing field-based and administrative assistance to an HIV-AIDS organization from Cape Town, I somehow thought my love for this country and all my late nights spent working against its infections would insulate me from its violence. But my experience was neither singular nor rare: I encountered, that night, a plague of another sort whose infection rates are just as rampant and for which there is also no cure in sight.

The half-hour they spent with me -- shuffling through my things, threatening me repeatedly and then guarding me as some of them went to pillage other rooms -- is the sort of worst-case experience that no one, even in South Africa, can imagine happening until it does. Soon after they entered, my hands and feet were tied, and I was forced to lie, in my underwear, on the bed while they argued over whether to rape me. One of the older men in the group wouldn't let them, putting his own gun in another's face to keep him from hurting me. As they finally got ready to leave, I was again threatened, this time as one of them pointed a gun at my forehead and pulled the mattress up in front of it as a silencer. Again I somehow stayed calm, and again the same man defended me, pushing the rest of them out the window. He gently pulled the covers up over me, placed the subscriber identity module card from my cell phone in my bound hands, turned out the lights and quietly closed the window. My luck borders on the miraculous.

Though I know I was silent and complicit throughout the entire episode, my pulse rate doubles when I replay the scene in my head now, and I hear not their voices or mine but a loud, prolonged wail. The silence I had to maintain during the event has left a retroactive scream in my mind that I cannot stifle.

I am no wide-eyed tourist to the constant, droning tragedy of violence in South Africa. I have learned -- slowly, mournfully, sometimes the hard way -- how one of the world's highest rates for violent crime translates into the dialogues of daily tragedy in this country. Ten minutes into my first counseling appointment to talk about the event, the quiet, safe street below erupted into screams as a woman was forced from her car at gunpoint in broad daylight.

But the crimes we witness -- or those we survive -- in the verdant, high-walled, segregated compounds of this city are minuscule compared with those committed in the dusty shantytowns and townships where the vast majority of South Africa's black population lives. There, the crimes occur not only without investigation but with blame heaped upon the victims: People aren't murdered, they just disappear; girls aren't raped, they just become HIV-positive at the age of 11.

Apartheid left an interminably long legacy of social trauma -- a constant devaluation of what it is to be human, a ruthlessly planned decimation of family and community. Out of the horrific structures of apartheid, a new government rebuilt the economy but neglected new, thriving epidemics. Primary among them was HIV, and national negligence furthered infections and denied millions access to care and treatment. Though I have often recorded with disgust infection rates higher than 50 percent for pregnant women at some clinics, I've learned that violent crime competes with AIDS for first place among terrifying and untreated afflictions in South Africa.

In my guesthouse room that night, I saw both plagues intertwined in the young, panicked life of the man left to guard me. He spent most of his time not watching me but trying to muffle multiple bouts of the telltale coughing fits of tuberculosis. He was too slim and had scars from sores on his face, which later helped the police to identify him. I felt during those long minutes both a gasping fear that he would rape me and a blossoming pity and concern for him. I thought of referring him for treatment; at another point, I impulsively reached for my water bottle to offer him a drink, and barely escaped a blow to the face with a crowbar, which glanced off the headboard behind me.

We live here in Cape Town underneath the shadow of a great and ancient mountain, blanketed by its clouds, buffeted by its winds. But we also live under the invisible burden of millions of lives whispering their fears and sorrows across the airwaves of humanity. A sound so close to silence and so often ignored that it is drowned out by the cafe noise, the beachfront waves, the long summer days of a European city perched on the tip of a troubled continent.

The scream I hear inside my head now, I think, is not just my own but that of my attackers, of their families, their grandfathers and communities and girlfriends and wives: all those who have suffered far more loss of trust and dignity than that 30 minutes caused me. I am thankful to hear it at all.

An Epic Moment in My Life

A 45 to 50-foot female humpback estimated to weigh 50 tons was on the humpbacks' usual migratory route between the Northern California coast and Baja California when it became entangled in nylon ropes that link crab pots. It was spotted by a crab fisherman at 8:30 a.m. in the open water east of the Farallones about 18 miles off the coast of San Francisco.

Mick Menigoz of Novato, who organizes whale watching and shark diving expeditions on his boat the New Superfish, got a call for help later in the morning and alerted the Marine Mammal Center which gathered a team of divers.

By 2:30 p.m. the rescuers had reached the whale and evaluated the situation. Team members realized the only way to save the endangered leviathan was to dive into the water and cut the ropes. It was a very risky maneuver, Stoudt said, because the mere flip of a humpback's massive tail can kill a man.

"I was the first diver in the water, and my heart sank when I saw all the lines wrapped around it," said Moskito, a 40-year-old Pleasanton resident who works with Great White Adventures, a cage-diving outfit that contracts with Menigoz. "I really didn't think we were going to be able to save it."

Moskito said about 20 crab-pot ropes, which are 240 feet long with weights every 60 feet, were wrapped around the animal. Rope was wrapped at least four times around the tail, the back and the left front flipper, and there was a line in the whale's mouth. The crab pot lines were cinched so tight, Moskito said, that the rope was digging into the animal's blubber and leaving visible cuts.

At least 12 crab traps weighing 90 pounds each hung off the whale, the divers said. The combined weight was pulling the whale downward, forcing it to struggle mightily to keep its blow hole out of the water. Moskito and three other divers spent about an hour cutting the ropes with a special curved knife. The whale floated passively in the water the whole time, he said, giving off a strange kind of vibration.

"When I was cutting the line going through the mouth, its eye was there winking at me, watching me," Moskito said. "It was an epic moment of my life."

When the whale realized it was free, it began swimming around in circles, according to the rescuers. Moskito said it swam to each diver, nuzzled him and then swam to the next one.

"It seemed kind of affectionate, like a dog that's happy to see you,'' Moskito said. "I never felt threatened. It was an amazing, unbelievable experience. It felt to me like it was thanking us, knowing that it was free and that we had helped it,"

Sunday's daring rescue was the first successful attempt on the West Coast to free an entangled humpback, said Shelbi Stoudt, stranding manager for the Marine Mammal Center in Marin County. Humpback whales are known for their complex vocalizations that sound like singing and for their acrobatic breaching, an apparently playful activity in which they lift almost their entire bodies out of the water and splash down.

Before 1900 an estimated 15,000 humpbacks lived in the North Pacific, but the population was severely reduced by commercial whaling. In the 20th century, their numbers dwindled to fewer than 1,000. An international ban on commercial whaling was instituted in 1964, but humpbacks are still endangered. Between 5,000 and 7,500 humpbacks are left in the world's oceans, and many of those survivors migrate through the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary.

"You hate to anthropomorphize too much, but the whale was doing little dives and the guys were rubbing shoulders with it," Menigoz said. "I don't know for sure what it was thinking, but it's something that I will always remember."

Passengers shun troubled Zimbabwe airline

The loss-making state airline Air Zimbabwe carried just 230 000 passengers last year, compared with more than a million in 1999, the official media reported on Friday.

Acting chief executive Captain Oscar Madombwe blamed the decline on negative publicity on political and economic turmoil in the country and a perception of safety concerns among both local and foreign travellers, along with shortages of hard currency, new equipment and gasoline, the state Herald newspaper said.

An elephantine safari adventure

He paints a picture with a few simple words: "The great thing about being on an elephant is that there's no engine, just the sound of the stomach rumbling. Elephants don't talk much unless they have something to say."

Randall Moore has spent most of his life caring for, living with and achieving a greater understanding of elephants than most people ever dream of. American by birth, he speaks with a watered-down accent after years in Africa.

Credited with creating the first elephant-back safaris 15 years ago, he's now been joined by others who also offer this facility, but his is still the only outfit that offers elephant-back rides in the Okavango Delta.

Very useful tools are available on the Internet when searching for "lost" relatives/family.

On a personal level, the Truters have available a free Family League website and the availability of a CD by the author of the Truter Family Register, which has been very helpful indeed.

Then too I've been impressed by the Henning Family League that has been operational for several decades. Because of marraiges between these 2 families, lost relatives have been found again.

All these things spur one's interest in genealogy!

Humour TOP

A woman was trying hard to get the catsup to come out of the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her four-year old daughter to answer the phone.

"It's the minister, Mommy," the child said to her mother. Then she added, into the phone, "Mommy can't come to the phone right now. She's hitting the bottle."

During a sermon one Sunday, the pastor saw two teenage girls in the back giggling and disturbing people.

He interrupted his sermon and announced sternly, "There are two of you here who have not heard a word I've said." That quieted them down.

When the service was over, he went to greet people at the front door. Three different adults apologized for going to sleep in church, promising it would never happen again.

An Air Force colonel routinely flew on different aircraft to familiarise himself with their capabilities.

One day he was aboard an intelligence aircraft where each crew member was surrounded by complex gear. A young major showed the colonel his computer screen.

"That's a chat screen, Sir," the soldier said. "We use it to relay enemy information to the crew. It's like instant messaging."

Nodding, the colonel moved down the line. Flashing on an airman's screen several feet away was this warning: "Heads up! The colonel's on the way!"
