One of 350 000 people Brutally MURDERED since Mandela's Utopia
Brit 'who loved SA' brutally killed on farm
2012-11-26 08:31
Chris Preece (Volksblad)
Bloemfontein - A British man who fell in love with South Africa was brutally killed on the dream farm that he wanted to turn into a nature reserve on Saturday night.
Chris Preece, 54, died and his wife Felicity, 56, was seriously injured when three men attacked them with knives and pangas on their Ficksburg farm, reported Volksblad.
The couple were attacked by three men who were believed to be from Lesotho.
The dogs were believed to have been poisoned after Preece took them out one last time that night.
He became worried when they didn’t come back and the attack took place shortly afterwards.
“The robbers threw her [Felicity] against the walls, slashed her and left her for dead covered in blood.
“And for what? A bit of money, a wallet and a few cellphones,” said daughter-in-law Jeanné Preece
“I tell people this wasn’t a farm murder! He wasn’t a farmer. He was in love with this land.”
Preece said her father-in-law wanted to turn his farm Fleur de Lys into a nature reserve and rehabilitation centre for owls and cheetahs.
The geo-engineering consultant was originally from the UK and worked in Johannesburg, spending only weekends on the farm, while his wife and relatives lived on the farm.
The murdered man’s wife sustained a skull fracture but was said to be in a stable condition in hospital.
The three men are still on the run.

What we can Learn from Sarah Palin Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
Top Ten Quotes from Sarah Palin's RightOnline Address
by Tony Lee 16 Jun 2012
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin delivered a call to arms to the online "Army of Davids" in its battle against the Goliath that is the "lamestream media" Friday at the RightOnline conference in Las Vegas.
Of course, this was also the late Andrew Breitbart's life's mission, and Palin keynoted the fifth annual conference on the same night it honored Breitbart's life and legacy. Palin showed once again how she, like Breitbart, could inspire conservatives, be funny, and mock liberals in a way that allows her message to cut through the mainstream media's filter.
Here are the top ten quotes from her address.
1. On not being co-opted by the permanent political class
Sometimes you gotta rage against the machine ... to hold them accountable ... Whatever the outcome is in November, please do not get co-opted by the permanent political class. Granted you will not make many friends in the Beltway or in Hollywood ... or in HBO ... you won’t be one of the cool kids ... doggone it ... aww ... sometimes you’ll find yourself under the bus ... but you need to stay outside of the machines ... sometimes you gotta rage against it ... stay outside of the political establishments in order to hold them accountable ... don’t spin the GOP failures the same way the left does for President Obama ...
2. On Andrew Breitbart's legacy of fearlessness
As we honor Andrew Breitbart, remember his greatest gift he left for us is fearlessness ... and I would hope ... that you would be able to reload with that inspiration of his fearlessness ... stand your ground and others will stand with you .. courage inspires courage .. victory begets victory ... don’t retreat, reload with that inspiration.
3. On Matt Drudge and his clairvoyance
The new media rose up precisely because the old media failed to tell the truth. That very first new media breakthrough was about 15 years ago when this lowly little store clerk in a lowly little apartment equipped with his computer and a modem broke one of the biggest stories of the decade. His name was Matt Drudge and the rest is history. And in hindsight, we see that the story he broke was more than just a president having an affair. To me it was much, much more than that. It was about a major old media publication that had spiked the story eleven times. And they knew all about it. Eleven times! Not just once to check their facts. Not twice just to double-check. Eleven times they spiked the story. Why? Because as charter members of that Democrat Media Complex they were protecting their guy. So, when a fellow with a modem and a website found out about this, he decided to tell the truth they refused to tell. And oh how that old media cried foul and they howled. They denounced Drudge as irresponsible and unprofessional and even dangerous and anti-everything from motherhood to apple pie. How dare that nobody from nowhere without a degree or a pedigree try to influence the national discourse. But the real reason they feared him was because he wasn’t beholden to the old media’s machine and the Thought Police. Unshackled, he was free. And a few months later, Drudge got to speak at the National Press Club in DC. He predicted the future in his speech there. He said, “We have entered an era vibrating with the din of small voices. Every citizen can be a reporter, can take on the powers that be....I envision a future where there’ll be 300 million reporters, where anyone from anywhere can report for any reason. It’s freedom of participation absolutely realized.” Thus the birth of citizen journalism, and you are the future he predicted!
4. On national security leaks and augmented figures in polls
But if they had done their job perhaps we would not be shocked to know that our White House would politicize national security by leaking highly confidential information to prop up their polls. Now here we are in Vegas. And in Vegas -- and in Washington too -- they talk a lot about polls. There are a lot of poles in Vegas. The White House likes to cite polls ... because the figures involved in those polls are usually augmented too ...
5. On the Tea Party’s steel spine
You showed D.C. what having a spine looks like. Or, as I said that day in Wisconsin, you showed them how to 'fight like a girl.'
6. On the mainstream media's failure to vet Obama
Had the media done its job ... we would have known of his association with anti-American intellectuals and then not be surprised at his desire to apologize for America to foreign dictators, or that he is the first President of the United States in history to not believe we are an exceptional nation ...
7. On Obama's failed energy strategy
So as we're preaching 'drill, baby drill' ... and he's preaching 'stop, baby stop' ...
8. Teasing Obama for having eaten a dog in his youth in Indonesia
Why did they (the mainstream media) at least not read his autobiography? ... they would have learned a whole lot ... about pot smoking and cocaine smoking and what he ate ... Fido. Rufus. ... I find it funny that I get a hard time for eating elk and moose ... come on, does anybody have a pet moose? There’s a difference.
9. On the power of truth
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
10. On being influencers in pop culture
Breitbart said 'culture is upstream of politics' ... it’s not selling out, it’s infiltrating and influencing.

Santa Barbara
I was first introduced to Santa Barbara when my sister and her husband took me there for an experience of a lifetime. If you have the good fortune of going to Santa Barbara the memory will linger forever. I always thought that Seattle was the city of dreams but it will never compare to this place. The first thing you notice is how well this small city is run but the overall feeling is one of peace!

PRAISING, SERVING & LOVING HIM
PRAISING, SERVING & LOVING HIM
You have so much to teach me, Lord, and much I need to learn,
Please give me strength to do Your will, as I Your voice discern,
My mind is full of selfish thoughts that crowd Your Presence out,
Help me to rid myself of all that causes fear and doubt.
I need to learn to praise You, Lord – I do not praise enough,
I praise You when I’m happy, but seldom when life’s rough;
Help me to know You love me, no matter what takes place,
And give me faith and courage to run a steadfast race.
I need to learn to serve You, You’ve done so much for me,
And others need to know You, so they too can be free;
Fill me with zeal and fervour to be of use to You
Lead me to where You want me, show me what I can do.
I need to learn to love You, because You first loved me,
To love You just for dying, in pain, at Calvary;
It’s always very easy to live when there’s reward,
But teach me how to love You, with love like Yours, dear Lord.
I don’t deserve Your love and grace – I’m filled with so much shame,
Yet You reached down and touched me, and called me by my name,
Through tenderness and mercy, You gave me all I own,
And You have promised faithfully that I am not alone.
Thank You for all the things You’ve done, for what You will yet do,
And though there may be many trials I still must struggle through,
If I keep looking up at You, and on Your Spirit lean,
Live in Your Word, and hold Your hand, I will know joy serene.

Taralyn McLean and Msindisi Fengu
TWO men have been arrested in connection with a horror attack on two Swedish tourists near Eastern Beach in East London.
Police spokesman Captain Ernest Sigobe said the suspects – both in their 20s – had been arrested by the Family Violence and Sexual Offences Unit in the city’s CBD at about 2pm yesterday.
“They will both face charges of RAPE and ROBBERY and will appear in the East London Magistrate’s Court soon,” he said. The women were allegedly pulled into the bushes between Bats Cave and the Eastern Beach Lifesavers’ shack by knife- wielding men on Tuesday afternoon. They were then both allegedly raped and robbed.

Building our gazebo Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
The sections finally welded together. It took a long time to eventually erect and weld these sections so the entire frame quickly rusted which added to the expense of treating the metal.
Building our gazebo Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
The welded panels I made up on the front porch now welded to form the hex. It was quite difficult as I had to tack weld all of these together by myself which added to the difficulty.
Building our gazebo Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
Painting the sheet metal undercoating of our gazebo roof. Still the ridge caps to go on before the final green is applied to the roof. Also to be added later are roof edge trim, twinkling lights, and a hanging lamp inside before the roses and flower creepers for the garden on the outside. The whole structure is made of steel so ultra - violet light won't attack the plastics.

The Houses of Parliament in 3D
I started back to front with Big Ben's pinnacle roof structure first, oh yes, with a great cup of tea!
The Houses of Parliament in 3D
This 3D puzzel took me two days to build after coming home from work. The hardest part to build is BIG Ben, soon to be renamed the Queen Elizabeth Tower after HM Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee. The puzzle is awesome and is really theraputic to put together.
