Hierdie is die
aangrypende verhaal van 'n weeskind se stryd en strewe in 'n kinderhuis
om 'n staanplek vir homself in die lewe af te baken. Die seun was 'n
vondelingbaba en het dus nooit enige ouerliefde ervaar nie. Oënskynlik is daar
ook nie familie wat hulle oor hom ontferm nie. Hy kan dus slegs op sy eie
instinkte en fisieke vermoëns staatmaak. 'n Groepie simpatieke volwassenes probeer hom wel help en bystaan
waar hulle kan. Ongelukkig is daar ook die kansvatters wat hom wil uitbuit en
hulle ten koste van 'n weeskind wil verryk! Hierdie is 'n verhaal van vasbyt en
deurdruk, ongeag allerhande beperkings en terugslae in die lewe.</div>

Tussendeur alles is daar natuurlik ook nog die wêreld se
vele afgode, wat as struikelblokke 'n arm weeskind gereeld treiter. Daar is
darem ook die opwinding van gholftoernooie en die ekstase van eerste liefde vir
twee verskillende skoonhede, die blonde rykmansdogter en die pragtige
hoofmeisie van die hoërskool. Die
simboliek van die buiteblad is van 'n jong man wat 'n nuwe daeraad in sy lewe
tegemoetstap.<o:p></o:p></div>

Hierdie bundel bevat vier en twintig lekkerlees kortverhale
en artikels oor 'n verskeidenheid onderwerpe en situasies. Sommige daarvan het
reeds in 'n e-boek verskyn, maar almal word vir die eerste keer hiermee in
gedrukte vorm uitgegee. Die temas van die verskillende geskrifte in die boek is verteenwoordigend van die eeu
oue stryd tussen goed en kwaad. Dit poog om nie net interessant, opwindend en spannend te wees nie, maar om
ook die sosiale gewete van die lesers aan te spreek. Daar is temas van
verslawing in verskillende vorms, besoedeling van die natuur en die kuberruimte
en van misdaad. Al hierdie verskynsels is soortgelyk aan probleme wat regoor
die wêreld voorkom en simptomaties van die hedendaagse lewe is. Daar is ook 'n
verhaal met 'n sterk wetenskapsfiksie-inslag. <o:p></o:p></div>

has seen or experienced or heard or read about during a relatively long life.

home language. It started with a piece he wrote at the request of a lady in
England about his late father’s illegal medical practice. Obviously this was in
English. She suggested further writing and so the thing grew until eventually
it has taken it’s present form.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

Strydom’s name is synonymous with phenomenal courage and inspiration. Always a
keen mountain biker, he has successfully completed races including two Absa
Cape Epic with his friend “The Pom”. In June 2008 he successfully completed the
gruelling Freedom Challenge Race Across South Africa. Up until September 2008
he had had a life that most people would class as near-perfect.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

was shaken to the core when Jaco was diagnosed with cancer. “Four Beautiful
Years” is the story of his life since that day. Instead of opting to lie down
in despair, Jaco got up and has seized each day with a ferocity that leaves one
speechless. Planning cycling expeditions between chemotherapy and radiation
treatments, solo-circumnavigating Lesotho on his mountain bike, riding Cape to
Beit Bridge, and then carrying on to circumnavigate South Africa in 2012...<o:p></o:p></span></div>

a victim who has become the ultimate victor. It will dwell in your heart long
after you put the book down, and will inspire you to overcome life’s
challenges, one day at a time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">In this post-modern world, someone standing in a
boardroom in front of a group of people for hours on end trying to facilitate
change is a thing of the past. The post-modern boardroom has become a place where people are exposed to
various experiences that are accompanied by lots of laughter, fun, music,
playing and interaction. This is all whilst people change, plan or build new
dreams. The skilled facilitator uses activities, games and experiences as tools
to address much deeper problems that need to be solved or questions that need
to be answered. We discovered that when you wholeheartedly believe in the
potential of people and use the tools in this toolkit, it is possible to help
them develop way beyond what they believed was possible.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

verteenwoordigend van die eeu oue stryd tussen goed en kwaad. Dit poog om nie
net interessant, opwindend en spannend

is temas van verslawing in verskillende vorms, besoedeling van die natuur en
die kuberruimte en van misdaad. Al hierdie verskynsels is soortgelyk aan
probleme wat regoor die wêreld voorkom en simptomaties van die hedendaagse lewe

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Ed Tippett’s journey as a forester in South
Africa is one that begins as a naïve newly married young man that introduces
him to a ‘forestry lifestyle’. Through
numerous incidents he develops an ever deeper understanding of the forest, the
people, and the family but most significantly of himself. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The theme of fire gives Ed the opportunity to
develop his skills in many aspects and brings both the elation of controlling
fires, but also the tragedy of the destruction of forests, assets and
life. While there are many characters
that influence Ed, none are as significant as his friend Wilbur, who acts as
his mentor. In turn coaching and
mentoring become the compelling reason for his being, and the joy and results
that are associated with this. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The trilogy of books sees Ed develop from
situational hands on forester, to forestry manager that develops systems, to a
regional manager that engages strategies of integration. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">While these books are written using forestry
as a ‘platform industry’, the ‘gems of wisdom’ can be applied to any industry,
in any country in its wider context, yet is constantly kept real by the
interaction at family and relationship level.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-ZA" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Once you start reading you will not put it
down as you become so engrossed with the journey and the wide range of stories
of a life that could have been yours in parts, but no one person’s alone. An epic journey of discovery for the reader
who will open their mind for self and organisational improvement. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">This book
forms part of Phase B of the Integrated Theological Training Program (ITT) and
introduces learners to the Theology of the Church (Ecclesiology). The themes are
structured in such a manner that it finally ensures that being a Church designated
as the called out ones, believers are empowered to practically apply the
message of Christ as salt and light in the world. The Kingdom of God becomes
real when we are doing what is right and what is just in the eyes of God. This
emphasizes the importance of restoration and transformation as central to the
holistic or all inclusive challenge of the Church of Christ as the congregation
(gathering) of the Called-out-Ones.</span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">This work forms part of an Integrated
Theological Training program that is based on the needs identified by the
Africa Services Training Work Group to introduce spiritual leaders in Africa to
systematic theology and the need for a holistic or integrated approach to
serving Christ. The program is the
result of the visionary leadership of the Regional Director of Africa Services
J P Pretorius who gave the mandate as well as secured the financial support for
the development of the material as well as the Training Manager George Bezuidenhout
who coordinated the development process and made valuable contributions to the
text based on many years of experience in the field while working in Southern
Sudan. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In order to ensure that I could dedicate myself fulltime to this
challenging task I wish to express my gratitude to the Cavers Trust who ensured
back-up support that allowed me to do the necessary research before the
material was submitted for final evaluation. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF">Hierdie familiesage van 'n Boeregesin, begin
in 1898, voor die uitbreek van die Tweede Vryheidsoorlog. Dis 'n roerende- en boeiende verhaal van 'n
egpaar met hul twee seuns en dogter, wat met deursettingsvermoë 'n nuwe begin
met boerdery wil gaan maak na herhaalde droogtejare op hul dorre plaas in die
verre Wes-Transvaal. Met net 'n paar
honderd pond, pak die gesin die epiese ossewatog aan na waar hulle verneem het
die “Beloofde Land” geleë is; die verafgeleë Transvaalse Laeveld, naby die
dorpie Nelspruit. Daar bekom hulle 'n
pragtige stuk vrugbare Staatsgrond, en begin met die opbou van hul droom
vrugte- en veeplasie. Wanneer die
kapitaal opraak, trek die ondernemende broers met ossewa na die afgeleë
jagvelde langs die Lebomboberge, om hopelik met 'n vrag waardevolle ivoor terug
te keer. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF"> Dan
breek die Oorlog uit en die broers,
later ook hul pa, vertrek op kommando teen die gehate Kakies. Ma en dogter red later op 'n heroïese manier
die boerdery van totale uitwissing, wanneer die Britse soldate deur die distrik
trek en verwoesting op die plase saai. Geweef
deur die storie, is daar 'n vurige romanse tussen die aantreklike oudste seun,
Pieter, en die twee mooie meisies in sy lewe, Clarissa en Ansie. Later in die Oorlog, red Pieter en sy korps
onverskrokke burghers diè twee jong dames uit die onmenslike konsentrasiekamp
en neem hulle na veiligheid.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF"> Net
na die Oorlog in 1903, gaan die broers op 'n tweede olifantjagtog; dis 'n halfjaar lange ekspedisie na die
onherbergsame Rufijirivierdelta in Duits-Oos-Afrika. Tydens hierdie grootse avontuur, bekom die
broers 'n groot hoeveelheid ivoor, en dan maak die twee boonop 'n ongelooflike
ontdekking in die wildernis wat die gesin eensklaps oppad na welvaart
ophef. Teen die einde is daar 'n
dramatiese en onverwagte wending in die liefdesdriehoek tussen Pieter, Clarissa
en Ansie.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Shattered Dreams - Jannie Louw</span></h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF">The characters in this story walk through a
beautiful land, in which its people are often referred to as the Rainbow
Nation. Unfortunately, as in the rainbow myth, there is no road to or pot of
gold at the end of the rainbow, only wishing bowls to compensate the dreamers
in their search for a better life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF">For lovers, it's their gaze at the stars when
their cups runneth over. For the hungry its clay pot begging bowls and water
carafes for the thirsty. For others it's their desperate vacant stares at the
distant mountains from whence the rains should come. There are many other bowls
to choose from, like the Sangoma's calabash, in which he'd collect and drink
the ox's blood, to celebrate the death of a predator to appease his ancestors.
Yes the predator, he who walks in the sun but casts no shadow, whose sole
purpose is to maim and destroy the lives of others. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF">But alas, in the end, no matter what you wish
for, the dreams of the Rainbow Nation and the pot of gold exists only in the
mind of its people. Freedom has to be paid for in many ways. In the end greed,
corruption, crime, incompetence and poverty can and will lead to despair and
bring even the strongest to their knees; believers to pray, others to suffer
and the confused to come to terms with their consciences in their own way. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF">Will the politicians' promises of a new life
in South Africa materialise or will it bring hardened criminals and murderers
into its light, there to count their money, tarnished with the blood of the
innocent, in their candle's flickering flame? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="AF">Yes, there are times when tears have a value
greater than gold.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
