Bulawayo Morning Mirror Edition 680 - 5/4/2016


In this edition


1) Editorial


Hee Hoo Must Remain Curious!!

I am changing his name from 'Hee Hoo Must be Obeyed' to 'Hee Hoo Must Remain Curious' !!

I have never met anyone with such an insatiable curiosity. He never stops ! Always digging, always reading, always sopping up as much information as his head can possibly retain ! He digs into scientific journals, business journals, IT journals, he just digs and digs and digs.

I need to quite to him that old adage Mum always told us 'Curiosity killed the Cat' because he will wear his brain out soon!!

He burns the candle at both ends and in the middle! Goes to sleep long after me, wakes up long before me, always questing for more and more knowledge!!

Me I am quite content to play scrabble, write inane editorials for the Mirror, patch the weekly Mirror together page after page, or work in the garden - Hee Hoo is always on the lookout for more information, more knowledge, more expertise!! When we were first married, back in the Dark Ages, I thought he was FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) but he just has an unquenchable thirst for wisdom.

He loves Twitter, follows hundreds of erudite folk from Piers Morgan, to Fox News, Harvard Health, Huffington Post Science, to a Twitter account with the intriguing name of - 'Mental Floss'. These and more are all the people who also have a thirst for the truth, all the people who can debate, tweet, and field knowledge until the cows come home. He also loves sport, all sport and like many men can quote, ball by ball, a cricket match that was played twenty years ago!!!

Me I am a Philistine, I am quite content reading books by Patricia Cornwall and Jonathen Kellerman. But HeeHoo has more intriguing tastes. He has at least five books on the go at one time! Currently engrossed in 'Six minutes to Freedom' by Kurt Muse and Johan Gilstrom, 'The Haj' by Leon Uris, Ernest Hemmingway's 'A Farewell to Arms' and of course David Coltart's new book 'The Struggle Continues.'

We seldom watch a movie and the TV is always tuned to news stations, science forums, sports channels and the like. Sometimes I feel like a blond ignoramus, because I have to work really hard to keep up with his mind!!

Politics!! How many people can immerse themselves in every single election being held in every country in the world, He just loves politics, especially Zimbabwe politics, but can talk knowledgeably on Kenyan, American, Somalian and Australian politics if challenged!!

Sigh........ I do have something on him though!! He does not know the difference between a Clivia and an Agapanthus!!



MORE ON TOURISM

I read your Morning Mirror, Kenya experience and was torn, probably with, could it be a form of; "selfishness" What you say is true, the income derived from those millions of tourists is wonderful for the economy and gives work to the population, enriching their existence.

On the other-hand and my selfish being, is that the majority of tourists are "fun-fair tourists"! Yes, I love the thought of sharing the African bush with kindred spirits, who feel it, absorb it, adore it, passionately and want to protect it.

The question is; how do you achieve that mix Kruger Park, as wonderful as it is for we South Africans, is not a place I enjoy, especially during school holidays. If you get a lucky sighting of an animal, let alone one of the Big Five, you find yourself locked into a traffic jam for as long as the animal remains in sight. It is for this reason, I try to find the lesser known Parks, like Ithala, although no lion and cheetah, it has everything else and I had my best sighting ever, of a leopard there.
The people you meet on the road a reasonably far between and you stop and exchange information on various animals you can see on the loops.

I wonder what would happen to Gona-re-zhou, Mana Pools and the other parks, given an influx of, less caring tourists. I get the feeling that there must be a way, such a pity that Countries like; Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, don't, get together with Botswana and work together as I think they could get it right and lessen the concentration of visitors by spreading it out amongst them all In the North-west drop fences build a network, as in the South-west, in the Tuli area and of course the South-east, with South Africa and even perhaps Mozambique, for Kruger, Gona-re-zhou.

PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO

WAR AND PEACE - EPISODES 3 & 4
Thursday 7 April in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
By the end of last night's third episode of Andrew Davies's adaptation of 'War and Peace', one thing was clear - this is an epic romance, the likes of which we have not seen on television since Davies's 1995 classic 'Pride and Prejudice'. At his best Davies is capable of making romance not only palatable but simply irresistible to the modern mindset. When it works it is utterly captivating. [The Telegraph]
Andrew Davies really has done us proud with this adaptation. He has captured the intensity of feeling, glided effortlessly over the complex plotting and got to the dramatic meat of the story. And as we have seen again tonight, he has provided thumping cliff-hangers to every instalment so far. [Radio Times]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

NIGHT OF LOVE: AN EVENING WITH RENEE FLEMING
Friday 8 April Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
The Waldbuhne is one of the most appealing amphitheatres in Europe and is home to the Berlin Philharmonic's summer concerts; with audiences of over 20,000, these are some of the most popular classical music concerts in the world. In this one, recorded in 2010, operatic arias by Dvorak, Leoncavallo, Korngold, Puccini and Richard Strauss sung by 'America's Beautiful Voice', Grammy Award winning soprano Renee Fleming alternate with orchestral works by Elgar, Mussorgsky, Tchaikovsky and Wagner to create 'Night of Love'.
This would be worth having just for the Berlin Philharmonic portions of the performance under the baton of Ion Marin (who did a fantastic job with every piece on the programme), but with Renee Fleming's stellar performance as well this disc is a definite must have! [Amazon review]
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00)

WAR AND PEACE - EPISODES 5 & 6
Thursday 14 April in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
Well, if we were in any doubt as to why it was called 'War and Peace', we certainly found out tonight. BBC1's superlative dramatisation of Tolstoy's masterpiece erupted into action as the Russians fought Napoleon's forces at the Battle of Borodino and the story's characters were thrown headlong into the action. And what action it was. Noisy, bloody, brutal battle scenes flooded the screens, conveying the smoke-filled confusion with precision and power. [Radio Times]
It wasn't perfect. But neither is the novel, and that remains one of the greatest works in all literature. In the same way, this 'War and Peace' is one of the most wonderful things ever shown on TV. [Daily Mail]
Admission: $3.00 [free to film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

HALEVY: CLARI
Friday 15 April in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Halevy's 'Clari', written for and dedicated to Maria Malibran in 1828, is an 'opera semiseria', a genre which contains elements of comedy but also of pathos and in this case traces the love of a naive country girl for a duplicitous duke. After a few performances of a revised version in 1830, the opera was not heard again for nearly 180 years until Cecilia Bartoli took the title role in this production from the Zurich Opera House. Given in 2008 in celebration of the centenary of Malibran's birth, it proved to be the overwhelming hit of the season 'in a flamboyant production, effervescent with wit in which most of the seria is wisely sacrificed in favour of comic momentum, sumptuous sets and arresting stage business.'
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the interval ($10.00)

RABIES

In a recent incident, a man was alleged to have been bitten by a dog whilst visiting a property in Harare. Several days later, he was admitted to hospital (he had not been well for some time), where he passed away. The medical staff could not rule out Rabies as a possible cause of death and when further investigated, it was found that the Rabies Certificate for the dog had expired. In cases like this, the Veterinary Department is tasked with ensuring that the dog is quarantined and monitored for a stipulated period of time, or, if the dog is a stray, unmanageable or vicious, they have the legal right to destroy the animal there and then (usually by shooting) and send the animal for testing.
The report made to the Veterinary Department indicated that the dog was vicious, and, acting on this information, they arrived at the property with a weapon. Fortunately VAWZ Inspectors were on the scene and were able to calm the situation and uplift the dog for quarantine (it has since been re-vaccinated and returned to the owner). Contrary to rumours circulating, VAWZ does not carry a weapon, and certainly would not dream of shooting anyone's pet. Discussions have since taken place with the Vet Department on how to approach these situations with the emphasis being on humane destruction of the animal if so required.
In this case, the owner of the dog is guilty of contravening The Animal Health Act and is liable to a fine as well as ensuring that the dog is vaccinated before release from quarantine. Rabies is 100% fatal for both man and animals and it is irresponsible to allow your dogs' vaccinations to lapse. It doesn't matter if the dog is well known or by whom - if your certificate has expired, you're in trouble.

Vaccination Information:
Dogs: 6 weeks 1st Parvo
9 weeks 2nd Parvo
12 weeks 5 in 1 and Rabies
1 year old Booster 5 in 1 and Rabies
Thereafter, 5 in 1 and Rabies annually. If the Rabies vaccination has lapsed, a booster will be necessary 6 months after re-vaccination date.

Cats: 9 weeks First IFE / IFR (Cat Flu and Snuffles)
12 weeks Booster IFE / IFR and Rabies
Thereafter, IFE / IFR and Rabies annually


The purr-fect gift for your cat/s :

PAWZ'NALL ( 0772 534 882 ) at Zonkizizwe Shopping Centre has kindly agreed to sell , on behalf of a local pensioner , a number of large , flourishing CATNIP PLANTS (each with a FREE information leaflet) at a bargain price.

7) Bulawayo News

I would appreciate it if you could warn readers/ travelers of the unfortunate incident that happened to me while in South Africa.

My wife and I crossed into South Africa at Beit Bridge on Wednesday 9th March 2016. At the SA Customs the officer on duty requested our destination details and I advised that they are recorded on the Temporary Import Permit Form (TIP) but he demanded to know more than usual like "confirm exactly where you are staying" in Johannesburg. I gave him the full address which was the Town Lodge in Herman Street Isando.

On Friday morning at 7.06 am while the Lodge was very busy with people coming and going my Toyota Prado was stolen from the carpark in front of the Lodge. A distance of some eight metres from the front steps. The vehicle is fully alarmed with de-mobiliser, anti-hijack etc. Security at the Lodge is well organized when entering and leaving. Once booked into the Lodge, a room swipe card is used to activate the electric gate.

Later while viewing the Lodge's CCTV apparently two vehicles, a blue BMW with two occupants and a white Corolla with four occupants entered the carpark on Thursday morning at 7.00am with one of the occupants entering the reception area but acting very suspiciously sitting down, getting up and moving around the reception area. Meanwhile the BMW managed to park one bay away from my vehicle with the Corolla nearby.

Friday morning was a repeat of the above when my vehicle was stolen with a European behind the wheel backed up with the BMW and Corolla with four Africans. According to SAPS, the thieves wanted that particular vehicle and were probably heavy armed. SAPS also confirmed that the anti-hijack and alarm system can be down loaded if two vehicles are parked next to each other as the thieves have the equipment to do this.

It is obvious that the thieves were well advised as to where I was staying when one considers the early morning times and I believe the customs officer is on the lookout for certain types of vehicles crossing into SA and must work for a syndicate as upmarket vehicles from Zimbabwe are in demand. One needs to have a "tracker" installed on their vehicles when travelling to SA.
