Duane VermeulenAWSUM Celebrity Interview

Daniel Johannes ‘Duane’ Vermeulen was born on 3 July 1986 and matriculated at Hoërskool Nelspruit. From there on his professional rugby career ran through the Pumas (2005–2007), the

Cheetahs (2007–2008) and the Stormers (2009–2015), up to Toulon in France, where he is currently on contract. Duane plays his first of 35 test matches (up to the end of 2015) on 8 September 2012 against Australia. In 2014 he was nominated as one of five players for the IRB Player of the Year

award. As the iron man of South African rugby, Duane is respected as a world-class player locally and internationally. AWSUM News caught up with him to find out how life in France is treating him.

Q How do you experience life in France?

A Like any new place, France has its things to adapt to. Language, culture and food are some of the biggest things to get used to.

Q Tell us more about Toulon.

A Toulon is a smallish city in the south of France, that had its origins as a military harbour. The city is known today for shipbuilding, fish and wine, and of course also the rugby team. People here are crazy for RC Toulon and it hardly ever happens that our stadium is not packed.

V Hoe vergelyk die rugbystrukture tussen Toulon en die Stormers?

Q How do the rugby structures between Toulon and the Stormers compare?

A Both are extremely successful professional units. Because one works with much younger players in South Africa, much more time is spent here on development at club level.

Q How long did it take you to learn to speak French?

A I’ll tell you as soon as I’ve mastered it!

Q Do you manage to braai sometimes in France?

A The meat here is top quality and with the sun setting so late, it makes for perfect braai conditions.

Q How do the French differ from South Africans?

A I think that South Africans generally adapt quite well to France. The French can sometimes be a bit emotional and carry on about stuff, but for the rest, they are passionate people who love their country and their culture.

Q What do you miss the most about life in South Africa?

A One always misses one’s friends and family the most.

Q Do you plan to play in South Africa again in the Super Rugby series?

A It is difficult to know exactly what the future holds. For now, I have a job to do for Toulon and goals to achieve. Who knows what lies in wait after that.

Goat’s cheese and beetroot tarts

Page 3: PE - A3 Mock up

by Jenny Morris@jennymorrischef 

Goat’s cheese and beetroot tartsMakes 6

INGREDIENTS•1x 400g roll Today’s Puff

Pastry •300g chevin•150ml fresh cream•1 whole egg plus 1 yoke

beaten•Salt and pepper to taste•1 clove crushed garlic•2 tbls pinenuts•2 whole spring onions with

tops chopped•3 cooked beetroot sliced

kidding!!

So it’s worth considering goats milk or cheese , especially if you’re sensitive to lactose from cow’s milk , and because goat cheese contains less lactose than cheese made from cow’s milk, it is typically well tolerated by those with lactose intolerance.

The reason goats milk and cheese is easier to digest is because the fat globules are smaller, resembling those of human milk, and the curd is softer than cow milk curd, but you don’t have to have an intolerance to enjoy the wonderful flavour of goats cheese, it is wonderful in sweet and savoury dishes, it love to be in the company of figs, nuts and honey, and really adores to be paired with pears and beetroot.

METHOD

Only

Goat cheese has been made for thousands of years, and was probably

one of the earliest made dairy products. Goats milk is a wonderful substitute for cow’s milk for children that have

a low tolerance to cow’s milk, well not only children, adults as well.

Health Wellbeing&

Young children are a reservoir of germs and if they’re at crèche, school or anyplace else where they are around other children, they’re in a super-virus environment, which makes them the perfect vectors for illness and for passing viruses around. Kids hug, touch and cough all over each other. They chew on toys and as a result share their saliva, and then parents hug, kiss and cuddle them. It’s no wonder that the average parent catches a cold more compared to those without children.

Families with two, three or four children have some type of virus present in their household just under 60% of the time, whereas childless households were only infected with viruses three to four weeks of the year.

Each additional child in a household increased a family member’s risk of falling ill. Households with one child tested positive about 18 weeks of the year, while families with more than four children tested positive about 45 weeks of the year – that’s a whopping 87% of the time.

Parents who live with small children are 1.5 times more likely to be sick since children under the age of five tend to have at least one virus present in their mucus 50% of the time.

As we enter another cold and flu season it is imperative that those at risk, especially parents of younger children, give their immune systems a boost, whilst adequately protecting themselves from sources of cross-infection. But for a parent with little ones, it’s difficult to take care of yourself when you’re ill, since you have to take care of everyone else. This makes the recovery process so much harder (and unpleasant).

The best and most practical way of protecting yourself (and your family), is to practise proper handwashing techniques and to do so often. This could reduce the chances of catching your child’s cold by 30 to 50%. Another way is to stay out of waiting rooms in doctor’s offices, emergency rooms and the shops, and to avoid public transport as much as possible. Also use your judgement about your own situation. If you are pregnant and have had several bouts of flu or have a newborn, you may actually want to wear a mask.

Besides eating your greens, getting enough sleep is another critical factor in fighting off colds and flu. Research tells us that people who sleep six hours or less a night are four times more likely to catch a cold when exposed to a virus, compared to those who get in more than seven hours a night. Most parents probably don’t get enough Zs, but it’s vital to our wellbeing, so try to carefully plan your day to ensure enough time is spent in slumber land.

Keeping a clean and dust-free house is equally important. It might also be worth getting an air filter to clean and purify the air in your home, especially if you’ve experienced wave after wave of illness in your household.

In truth, there is no cure for the common cold or flu, but time-deprived parents may benefit from supplements that can boost their immune system.

If you do catch your child’s cold, there is an upside to all of this shared illness business: Once a child starts to develop a functioning immune system, at about six months, then the exposure to general viruses and germs isn’t necessarily a bad thing since it helps build and stimulate the immune system. It’s important to remember that a child’s immune system will only be fully developed between 12 to 14 years of age, when they finally reach adult levels of antibody formation, so you may be in for a tough few years, but as the children grow up it will help them fight other infections and stay healthier in the long-run.

Parents most at risk for colds and flu

As South Africa braces itself for another onslaught of cold and flu infections this winter

season, the biggest risk factor for catching the common cold

is having children under the age 12. Parents fall ill almost twice as

much as anyone else.

7 Ways to work smarter – not harder

1. Schedule itOrganise tasks you need to complete each day in order of importance – and go a step further with self-imposed hourly deadlines. Limit time frames and see how your mind focuses to get the task done. Not only are you accountable to yourself, you can also direct focus to one specific project at a time. Be realistic to avoid frustration. When prioritising tasks, complete the most pressing jobs first to capitalise on high energy in the morning. Set aside time to respond to emails instead of allowing your inbox to dictate how you spend your day. Urgent mails and calls are (obviously) the exception.

2. Avoid mental fatigueScheduled breaks help improve concentration – especially if the break involves standing up to stretch or a short bout of exercise to get blood pumping, like taking a walk. Five to 10 minute breaks between long tasks can help maintain a constant level of performance, as opposed to a steady decline in performance from working without breaks.

3. Don’t multitaskAlthough it’s seen as a positive attribute, multitasking isn’t always key to increasing efficiency. In fact, psychologists say there’s no such thing as multitasking – our brains simply switch from task to task at a rapid pace. This results in lost time and productivity. Committing to finishing a single task before moving onto the next is a better, more constructive habit to form.

4. Banish distractionsInterruptions throughout the day are inevitable, but the extent of the distraction can be mitigated. If possible, try work from different locations or isolate yourself for a certain period of time. For a subtle ‘do not disturb’ sign, wear headphones. And to the colleague who’s looking to shoot the breeze, communicate honestly to let them know you can chat later. Online videos and phone notifications can also be distracting. Instead of checking social media every five minutes, limit it to every two to three hours (or longer) instead.

5. Regain controlProcrastination can bring productivity to a halt. To regain control, take an hour to get organised and sort out admin. Delete irrelevant emails and file those you need to keep for reference. Don’t be tempted to start the actual tasks at hand: plan them first. Separating bigger jobs into smaller, achievable chunks reduces the feeling of being overloaded – a great incentive to crack on with the work. Another trick is to build a routine to get into a working mind-set, like creating a playlist or turning off your phone before you get started.

6. Declutter your work spaceA cluttered desk leads to unnecessary distractions. Instead of hoarding piled-up paperwork, transfer documents to cloud storage, like Google Drive and Apple iCloud Drive. Research shows art in the workplace can increase creativity and productivity, so personalise your desk with one or two colourful accessories. Paintings and drawings from family, framed photos or desk plants all work well. Stick to two to three desk items to cut clutter.

7. Prioritise sleepAccording to research, after several nights of losing sleep – even the loss of just one to two hours each night – your ability to function suffers in the same way as not sleeping for a few days. You take longer to finish tasks, have a slower reaction time, are more prone to mistakes and can slip into micro-sleep (brief moments of sleep that occur when you’d normally be awake). Set a regular bedtime and put your phone away an hour or two before you sleep, to boost quantity and quality of sleep. Practise relaxation techniques like breathing deeply and visualisation. Also use this time to reflect on your achievements and productivity.

Truly efficient people know there’s a difference between being busy and being productive. Harnessing the power of

productivity is less about time management and more about managing energy – working smart instead of hard.

Teenage career choice not a lifelong ball-and-chain

Often career choice decisions are made as far back as Grade 9 but they need not impact on the rest of one’s life, adds education expert Nola Payne of the Independent Institute of Education.

Number-crunchers estimate that a person will change careers about 5-7 times during their lifetime. Often, these changes will occur within the same discipline, meaning the issues that forced a person to re-assess their life path may simply transfer to the next phase. That’s why those who want to change careers should not only consider an upwards or sideways move, but possibly also entering a new field entirely, an education expert says.

Decisions on career choices are made as far back as our Grade 9 year at the age of about 15, when matric subjects are selected with the aim of gaining entry into the qualification that will prepare you for your career. However, at this young age, decisions are often based on influences from parents and peers, and with little insight into the actual rewards and demands of a specific career. After graduation and a year or five in the workplace, it is therefore not uncommon for people to find that their chosen field is not the one they want to pursue for the rest of their lives.

This realisation will manifest as a loss of passion, days turning into constant drudgery, difficulty getting out of bed and participating fully at work and possibly even depression. But a choice made in one’s teenage years need not impact the rest of one’s life. It is never too late to make a switch, but deciding to go from teacher to IT technician, or accountant to art director is a major move, which should not be made lightly.

Before leaping into the great unknown, watch out for the

following pitfalls:1. Don’t switch careers without a solid plan.2. Don’t change careers because you “hate” your job. Perhaps it’s

the environment and the people at work that you can’t stand, or it could be that you’re feeling bored. Figure out why exactly you want to make a change.

3. Don’t change careers based solely on financial matters or perceived status.

4. Don’t make a change because of pressure from family and friends.

5. Do consider all the possibilities and requirements to make the change.

6. Understand that you’ll probably need to spend money and time gaining the necessary qualifications and experience.

7. Make sure you can survive on the money you’ll earn as an entry-level employee in the new career.

Having said that, taking the plunge for the right reasons may have a dramatically positive impact on one’s life, and examples abound of people who have started from scratch in a new career and have gone on to great heights of success,.

After having made the big decision, Payne advises the

following process:1. Accept that your first choice of career is coming to an end, and give

yourself a timeline to switch disciplines. Don’t keep vacillating – commit to the new challenge with full focus and energy.

2. Identify where you’d like to be in 5 years and what you’d like to do. Do your research. This may be reading up on your preferred career choice, taking leave and job shadowing for a few days, and finding out what your options are at various public or private institutions’ careers centres.

3. Determine what mode of studying you are able to commit to in order to qualify in your new field. There are various options available. You could attend full time classes on a campus, part-time classes offered in the evenings, or distance/online study. For working adults – especially those with families - the part-time or distance options may be most suitable, even if it means taking longer to complete a qualification.

While studying for a new qualification, people should already start networking and immersing themselves in their new field, so that they are ready to hit the ground running after graduation. Additionally, upon graduation, CVs should be given a proper overhaul and not just recycled from the previous career. CVs should be reworked to emphasise key skills, experience and qualifications you have which meet your new career objectives.

While research shows people with change careers about 5-7 times during their lifetime (either within the same discipline or a completely different direction), this decision should not be made without careful consideration and planning.

Look hot tonight!

Hey Cinderella, it’s time to doll up for the ball. Pepe Sofianos has sorted great looks for you and your date plus all the little trimmings that make this the most magical night of your

school life!

For a drop dead gorgeous entrance choose one of these three unusual, different and new takes on what’s hot for The Dance.

RETRO queenIf being glam and glitz is your

thing, then go with this hot revival of 70’s bling. It’s all about a classic

Hollywood vibe in dramatic sequins and lots of flash fabrics.

The cocktail dress has finally made it to the dance floor and it’s just as gorgeous. Sequinned cocktail dress and fringed velvet

jacket, R749 each from H&M.

Oh my OTTSo over the whole dance dress thing? Then you’ll love this edgy and daring look that’s a

heady mix of grunge meets rock chick. It’s very trendy with the two-piece Boho style top and a cheeky nod to a long skirt. Cut-out shoulder top, R349 and faux leather fringed mini skirt,

R399, both from H & M.

Now is WOWThe latest look for thoroughly modern

Matric meisies is short, sharp and sassy --- go for a mini dress

in feathers, fringes or metallic fabric

and top it all off with a biker jacket and

lots of bling. Totally awesome! Similar items at Foschini,

Truworths, Edgars.

Pepe Says

Whatever you decide on for your big

night, keep to your own comfort and

confidence zone, your school’s dress

code and your folks’ blessing. Don’t

be tempted to break out of the mould

if you can’t carry it off. It could just

end up being fright night instead of

bright night.

TOP TRENDS FOR DANCE DRESSES 2016• Clever cutouts

Flirty and flattering, this is a hot detail for this year’s dance divas from shoulders to

thighs. • Slinky slits

Very alluring but keep it clean and chic… too much is too much. A sleek slit adds a

flirty accent to figure-hugging ball gowns.• Shhhh sheers

Sheer lace bodices rich with sequins or beading are very glamorous and fashion-

forward, flattering everyone. • Mermaid skirts

Full trailing skirts flowing out from form-fitting bodices --- totally perfect for hip-

heavy girls. It looks very swish and fantastic when you

are twirling and dancing. • Two-piece dressing

It’s a little daring and dramatic especially if you have a crop top but a teeny slither of midriff peeking out is a front-runner in the super dress stakes. It’s quite different but

refreshingly feminine.

Eye candyEdgy eye make-up is a total confidence booster. Try soft smoky eyes with a trendy twist --- inky black liner in a cat’s-flick at the outer corners with a swish of shimmery blue liner in the inner corners of your eyes, all finished with fabulous falsies. This is meltdown. Promise!Essence Dip Waterproof Eyeliner, R53.95. NYX Studio Liquid Liner in Extreme Sky Blue, R79.95. Miss Eyelure Lashlets from R54.95.

Fancy FootworkShoes and sandals must be outrageously gorgeous and

high-heeled to curve up your calves. Stiletoes are back

with a vengeance but don’t go there if you can’t dance in cliffhangers. There’s nothing worse than falling off your

own heels!The best shoes are ones

that fit snugly, have straps or ties, so there’s no fear of your footwear flying across the room, like these silver

T-bar shoes, R 440, Truworths. Step it out in ravishing red shoes on golden stilettos,

R799,Foschini, that will keep all eyes on you as you twirl

and swirl.

Brag bagEvening bags are a staple but

make sure there’s enough room for all your touch-up tools, mobile and so on. Clutches

are still tops but the new look is bigger. Silver clutch, R340,

Truworths.

All prices correct at time of going to print. Merchandise at selected stores and stocks may be limited.

GUY GEARUnless your school insists you have to wear

black tie, you can relax your look and instead of a tux wear a slick suit or a tux-style jacket with slim-fit pants. Take your cue from Hollywood

hunks when dressing for MD and break the rules with posh satin-edged pants with a dress shirt

and a bomber jacket. Way cool. What’s new is navy blue and steely grey. Using a different jacket colour can make your date’s dress pop and the two of you look incredible. But the

latest trend is wearing a tux with takkies! Gutsy and relaxed if you like a more edgy look,

wearing your sneakers is where it’s at.So get out there and burn that floor, boys!

IMPORTANT REASONS YOU MUST CLEANSE YOUR FACE MORNING AND NIGHT

PERSONAL/INSPIRATIONAL, SKIN CARE

BY NICKI ZEVOLA BENVENUTI.1. Research shows cleansing before bed is essential to looking younger,

longer. Every day your skin is aging. And the very simple process of washing your face before bed is an excellent way to mitigate the external factors associated with aging and to stimulate the internal processes that fight aging.

2. Nighttime cleansing is essential for letting anti-aging ingredients work.Nocturnal blood flow in the skin is higher. And when blood flow is increased so is absorption and penetration of ingredients.

3. Forgoing nighttime cleansing regularly will give you larger pores. First, consider that excess sebum (oil), dead skin cells, and pollution are sitting on your face. Not to mention makeup (and just because you don’t wear foundation is no excuse).

Do you really want to put your makeup on top of dead skin cells & excess oil? Would you skip brushing your teeth in the morning because you did it before bed? I think not…

HOW TO WASH YOUR FACE PROPERLY

BY ANNIE TOMLINSTEP 1: Begin by washing your hands. And, if you

have on any eye makeup, remove it before you begin to cleanse.

STEP 2: Wet your face completely with tepid water. Anything too hot will shock the skin and could even burst capillaries, resulting in those sensitive red marks usually found around the nose and cheeks. Next, squeeze a

dime-sized amount of cleanser onto your fingertips, and rub them together. Use your fingertips to massage the cleanser into your skin (from 30 seconds to a minute) in small and gentle circular motions.

STEP 3: One of the best ways to ensure that dirt and makeup are removed is by using a muslin cloth when you rinse. If you gently scrub in small circles, the cloth also acts as a light exfoliant!

STEP 4: Finish by splashing your face two to three times with cool water (not freezing cold — again, you don’t want to shock your face) to close your pores, and then pat your skin dry with a clean towel.

a Smile is its sword.-John Ray

Why you should still be working on networkingIn an age of professional social networks, it might seem as if the design of your CV and depth of your LinkedIn profile determines your ability to advance your career. In reality, networking is still an essential skill that should be fine-tuned and perfected. Here are some important insights into this often-overlooked business skill, according to Tish Magongwa, Franchise Marketing Manager at Nashua.

Network first, Facebook laterDecision makers still value human contact. Your digital profile is still considered a ‘cold call’ by the people who matter – they want to know who you really are, beyond a one-dimensional summary. Although it’s vital to play in the digital networking space, there’s no substitute for face-to-face interaction. The perfect LinkedIn profile means nothing if you can’t win people over in person, even though the end goal is ultimately the same: to promote yourself and connect with the right people.

Know your gameIt’s pointless to attend an event and blindly try to make an impact on everyone in the room. You have to know your short and long terms goals, and align your networking strategy accordingly. Be strategic: before you attend an event, research who will be there and a little bit about them. Know who you want to chat to, and make it happen.

Listen longerThe most vital skill in networking successfully is listening. Never approach a group of people and start running your mouth off because you feel you need to assert yourself and promote your skill set.

Ask questions, listen and identify similar interests. Pick up on these interests and ask more questions about them. Be flexible – if they’re not responding to you, change your agenda. Endearing yourself to someone as a person first makes it much easier to approach them professionally later. Always remember to keep it strictly friendly and familiar, never flirtatious.

Understand it takes timeWould-be-go-getters are often awestruck by the raw talent of successful networkers – this is a misconception. No one is a born networker – it’s a learned skill. Some people might be more naturally confident, but that certainly doesn’t make them a good networker. It takes endless hours of practice to fine-tune and master a fruitful networking style. So practice as much as you can.

Attend events that push you out of your comfort zone and try to leave with at least a few contacts. You’ve got nothing to lose, so be bold. Like anything else in life, the more you practice, the easier it gets.

Network everywhereIt may sound odd, but your networking skills spill over into your personal life too. Social occasions are equally important opportunities to network – but in this case, you’re looking to make friends, or just create a relaxed and comfortable environment.

The same goes for networking within your company. Just because you’ve landed the job you want, doesn’t mean you should stop networking – connect with people above and below you in the corporate structure. Offer support where and when you can, because one day you’ll probably need it in return.

Master the follow-upYou’ve spent a day connecting with the right people, swapped business cards – now what? Always think ahead and plan how you’re going to connect after the event. If possible, try and swap numbers and send a follow-up message the day after. Don’t be too aggressive and stalk them: asking for a coffee or lunch meeting to chat is okay, asking them to swing past your house for a glass of wine probably isn’t.

If you want to become a successful networker, remember you have to be self-motivated. The onus is on you to fine-tune your skills, because no-one is going to do it for you. It’s about being your own personal cheerleader, without anyone actually noticing. You’ll be surprised by how much it benefits other areas of your social life – and it might just land you the position you want.

Networking

These days, when we hear ‘networking’ we immediately

think of social networks. But it’s not your LinkedIn profile or

Twitter followers that will land you the job. Here’s what will.

Once again, the Herbert Hurd Family responded magnificently to a need in our city. Mr Rafi, of Rafi’s Appliances in Newton Park, approached schools in the area to collect second-hand warm clothing to be distributed to the needy in our city. As an incentive, he offered to donate two washing machines to the school that collected

the most clothing. The pupils of Herbert Hurd managed to collect more than 2 tons of clothing, thereby helping their local community and earning two washing machines for their school.

Summerwood ‘Moments in time’ concertOn the evenings of 24 to 26 May, the Grade 4 to 7 learners at Summerwood Primary School held their ‘Moments in Time’ concert. Creative costumes and cleverly choreographed performances ensured three fully-booked shows. The learners performed their hearts out, paying tribute to songs with ‘time’ as theme or part of the lyrics. From Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5 to Gwen Stefani’s What you waiting for?, many more memorable moments in time were made.

Talent for AfricaKálene Botha, a Grade 7 learner at Summerwood Primary School, took part in the 2016 ‘Talent Africa’ competition held in Cape Town recently. She took part in seven different song genre items and presented five drama pieces. For her song items, she walked away with four gold and three silver awards. Her drama pieces earned her four gold awards and one silver award.

Apart from these achievements she received a silver award for her modelling headshot, received the award for the best costume, received a top 10 medal for the category 13-40 years, was selected to perform a drama item in the showcase, and received both her Eastern Province and South African colours. Watch this space, South Africa!

Fun Walk festivitiesThe Summerwood Fun Walk of 2016 was a great success. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all, especially by the learners who could “sink” their teachers in the dunk-tank.

The Grade 2 learners dressed up as “Princes and Princesses” and made their own creative crowns.

The Grade 4s looked festive in their Hawaiian costumes.

Collegiate helps grow and develop Miss Earth PEFrom the flute to the piano to the alto recorder, Adria van der Merwe seems to have her feet planted securely on the ground as a Miss Earth South Africa Regional Semi-finalist.

Adria matriculated from Collegiate Girls’ High School in 2012 and is currently in her final year at NMMU doing her BMus degree. Besides studying music, Adria is a model with Extreme Models and also represents the agency Face of Extreme. Being a Miss Earth SA, Adria decided to give back to her high school, Collegiate, which helped her to grow and develop into the young woman that she is today. In doing this, Adria decided to plant a tree on the campus as a symbol of this growth.
