Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. - Margaret Mead - ++++ The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn - Ralph Waldo Emerson - +++++ Editorial Third World Nincompoop! Doing the laundry in a first world country definitely has its merits!! It's fast and efficient and the washing machines are undoubtedly akin to aeronautical technology! However they do need a degree in applied science to operate and the tumble dryers are a cross between magnetic levitation and bio engineering!! The only thing they have not managed to programme into a tumble dryer is the smell and feel of a line dried towel!! I know I am a graduate from the university of Technological Obsolescence but no tumble dryer in the world can emulate the smell of washing dried on a line in the sunshine - if only I could bottle that smell! The first world manufacturers of scents and smells are pretty good, I have to admit that. The smells that emanante from these modern tumble dryers are superb. 'Fresh linen' 'Sweet dreams' and 'Pure Sport' to name but a few... but the pundits tell us that these glorious scents are actually not good for us!! I quote !! 'Ever wonder why more first worlders are getting Alzheimer's earlier than ever before I suspect it's all the toxic chemicals they are breathing in all day on their clothes, and all night from their sheets and blankets. These toxins go straight to their brain's most sensitive neurological centers and wreck havoc. You simply can't assault the most delicate and sensitive part of your body - the mastermind of all your body's other functions -and not affect your health.' End of quote! Whatever happened to mother nature's sunshine-dried laundry Many first world households do not even have a washing line !! Too hot, too cold, not enough room, not enough time!! Clothes are washed in a high speed dryer and then thrown into an even higher speed dryer!! No problem with this if needs must but aaaah, never forget that glorious smell and feel of a line-dried towel! I refuse to put my third world cotton clothes in the tumble dryer ! Zim clothes were made to shrink and there is absolutely no room in my clothes for even the tiniest amount of shrinkage!! They are already stretched to their elastic limit. Third world life has its drawbacks I must admit, - Mother insisted that all clothes needed to be ironed in Zim because of the dreaded 'putsy fly' !! Well no decent, self respecting creature of any description, would ever be found in a perfectly air conditioned first world home, so no need to worry about that old adage. Of course no one can underestimate the fact that a tumble dryer leaves the clothing nice and smooth and little or no ironing is needed thereafter! On the other hand, however nice, aromatic and cuddly a tumble dried outfit may feel and smell, no one can knock the benefits and tactile sensation of a well ironed shirt or blouse! Now don't get me wrong, I am now knocking the lifestyle of millions of First Worlders, I am just sublimely grateful that my 'mother nature's tumble drier' aka sunshine has no electricity charge and that I can luxuriate in the smell of a line dried jumper filled with the smell of glorious outdoors and sunshine!! +++++ 2) EVENTS Invitation to exhibit at WASHen 2014!!

But George Lazenby's Bond is now more highly regarded too, critic Brian Fairbanks remarking that: 'OHMSS gives us a James Bond capable of vulnerability, a man who can show fear and is not immune to heartbreak. Lazenby is that man, and his performance is superb'. 'For me there's no question that cinematically is the best Bond film ... Shot to shot, this movie is beautiful in a way none of the other Bond films are. Admission: $3.00 [free to film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m. BRAUNFELS: THE BIRDS Friday 22 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. 'The Birds' is a free adaptation of Aristophanes' comedy of the same name, the origin of the phrase 'cloud-cuckoo-land', and it concerns Good Hope and Loyal Friend who, disillusioned with their fellow men, have journeyed to a desolate region in search of the Hoopoe, king of the birds, whom they persuade to build a great city in the clouds, fortified against men below and the gods above... The premiere of 'The Birds' in Munich in 1920 was a huge success and the number of productions and performances in the following years was enormous, but Braunfels was half-Jewish and the rise of the Nazis led to his exile and the eclipse of his ] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00) TITUS Thursday 28 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m. 'Titus' is a 1999 film adaptation of Shakespeare's revenge tragedy 'Titus Andronicus' about the downfall of a Roman general. Starring Anthony Hopkins and Jessica Lange, it was directed by Julie Taymor of 'Lion King' fame who set the play in an anachronistic fantasy world that uses locations, costumes and imagery from many periods of history, including Ancient Rome and Mussolini's Italy, to give the impression of a Roman Empire that survived into the modern era. N.B. The film is rated 'no under 18' and contains 'strong sex and violence and sexual violence themes'. Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m. NO.1: FIRST SYMPHONIES BY SCHUMANN, SIBELIUS AND MAHLER Friday 29 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m. Three very different and remarkable first symphonies from Schumann and Sibelius conducted by Leonard Bernstein and Mahler by Michael Tilson Thomas. 'Sibelius's First Symphony is quite simply superb. This is an uncontroversial interpretation which finds Bernstein at his most concentrated. I'm tempted to say this is the finest thing I've ever seen him do.

As a non-profit organization reliant on the generosity of corporates, public and service clubs our hospice has been hard hit by the financial crisis currently affecting the country. Donor support and fund raising projects have kept us afloat thus far but we currently only have sufficient reserves to meet one to two months expenditure. Cost cutting measures are still in force from last year. Our staff remains on reduced pay. However our monthly expenditure is still in the region of US$8,500.00 per month. Our year on year monthly income and expenditure for 2013-2014 are available for perusal. Please email us should you require a copy. We have lined up a number of fundraising events for which we seek your support. In September we will host our annual Ladies Tea, in October a Motor Show has been penciled in, in November a Healthy food expo is planned as well as a Street Collection. We will also participate in the Whitestone School fete where we will have on sale a collection of valuable books and a small assortment of antiques. We will round off the year with our annual 'Light a Light for Hospice' carols by candlelight.
