Mini Top Vibe Page 11 PLEASE PAY YOUR ACCOUNTS :

Please be responsible and pay your accounts. People don't always think about the consequences in not pay-

ing their accounts.

Should something happen and you can’t make payments please make arrangements.

One should not ask for money that somebody owes you.

If you are not paying your accounts, there is going to be a chain reaction— the person that needs to get paid will now also not be able to pay their accounts.

If you can’t afford the money to pay for something don’t ask for the service again and stop buying.

Be wise in spending money, keep a budget book then you will be able to keep track of what you can and cannot afford.

Always keep to the budget, and don't over spend.

Try to save some money. Start with R5, R10 and R20 like every time you have a R5, R10 or R20 throw it in a bottle, you will be surprised how much money you van save in a short time.

If you have a budget, you will know if you can afford to spend money or not.

Times are tuff so be responsible with your money..

Ask yourself these questions before you buy an item:

Do I need this?

Can I afford this?

Is this a necessity?

If your answer is YES to at least two questions then buy the item.

Mini Top Vibe Page 7 CLEAN THE HOUSE GIVE TO CHARITY:

Clean your home, garage and give all your old things to charity.

When last did you clean out your wardrobe?

If not recently it is almost winter time and just the right time to do it.

Throw out al the summer clothes that you are not going to wear next summer.

(If you havened worn something in the last six months your are most probably not going to wear it ever again.)

If we think of charity we tend to think about clothing only. Blankets, linen, cutlery , curtains ect are always welcome.

Even old magazines, toys, leftover paints, wood any thing that you can think of if you are NOT going to use it, somebody else NEED IT..

Any old furniture could help people in need.

CHANGING FACE IS BACK WITH A BRAND NEW AL-BUM!

Local rock group, Changing Face, were first introduced to the SA music industry when they released one of their biggest hits, Everything Changes. Not surprisingly, their second single, Forever & Ever Young followed suit and hit the charts - even making it onto a national radio commercial.

7 years down the line and Changing Face - more promising than ever – are taking off where they last left off by releasing their long anticipated self-titled third studio album.

The beginning of Changing Face lies deep in the heart of the Vaal Triangle. Formally known as Lloyd, a one-man acoustic act, the need grew for more than a solo setup. Changing Face was formed and in 2006 they released their debut album, Blind Fold, followed by So Real in 2009.

The group is made up of four individuals from different backgrounds, but all with one thing in common – they live and breathe music. The key to this band is a combination of confidence, hard work and talent. The group consists of Lloyd Peltier on lead vocals and guitar – born in SA, bred in the US and now back in SA; Sam Moka on drums - originally from Nigeria; Ugo Moka on percussion - Sam’s younger brother and newer member, Bruno dos Santos on bass guitar and vocals - born and bred in Van-derbijlpark. As like the members of the group, this 13-track album is diverse and fresh that fans, old and new, will appreciate. Known for their polished and energetic songs, each song offers an original and different experience. Together the band creates a fan-tastic up-tempo rhythm fused with Lloyd’s smooth vocal work.

The album opens with the ballad, Freedom Song and picks up with the well-arranged track, Giving In. Lyrics of up-tempo tracks such as second single, Fire with Fire, Soul on Fire and Lullaby are accompanied by catchy guitar riffs. Facing Changes is a more solemn piece while rockier tracks like Letters from Heaven and It’s About You showcase the band’s masterful guitar work and harmonies. The album also contains other interesting tracks that are enjoyable to listen to such as Dusty Road and the album’s closing song, Loaded Gun (first single and music video).

The album was produced and recorded by Wayne Joshua Hirschson at Dreamspace Recording Studios in Cape Town. All four members of Changing Face co-wrote on the album. “We rely heavily on our tight bond that we share as friends. We can write songs individually but we know how to tap into each other’s experiences and talents to craft a great song together,” says Lloyd.

They have collaborated with the likes of Lindsay McGuire, Mark Beling, Johan Laas and UMOJA and have shared the stage with some of South Africa’s top musicians. The band takes their inspiration from the likes of Collective Soul, Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews Band, David Gray, Foo Fighters, Prime Circle and the like.

Changing Face always gives an unparalleled energetic performance. Changing Face regularly performs at various venues and events across South Africa and has even ven-tured abroad. When asked what they loved most about doing what they do, frontman Lloyd responded, “Playing music all over; seeing new places; meeting new people - life doesn’t get better than this.”

OSCAR PISTORIUS COURT CASE

My opinion about the case, please remember this is my personal opinion. It’s very sad to say the least, that two families are involved in this case.

Parents lost a daughter and on the other hand the other parents might loose a son to a life time in jail.

People can be cruel, we can speculate to what happened that fatal day in the early morning hours.

But come to think of it, it is only Oscar, Reeva and God that knows the truth. Reeva is no longer here to say what happened. Oscar might not tell the truth, but there is God. I pray that, God will be the judge and not the people. That God will use the judge to be fair in this case. What ever the outcome of this case might be, we hope that people will show respect and not speculate on this case.

Reeva will never come back, that is very sad, but hopefully her family will find the answers that they are looking for.

Our prayers are with both families. May God comfort them.
