Nie dadelik die vraagteken agter die "voortplanten" gesien nie maar nou het
ek - en dit vra mos vir kommentaar :
Baie plekke hier het 'n 'Ollander of twee en gewoonlik weet almal in die
dorp van die 'Ollander(s) aldaar. Moet seker iets met die lug hier te doen
hê want hulle teelprogram is heeltemal biedêm hier - hulle het seker probeer
maar die aanwas kon net nie kers vashou by die tuis in Europa nie. Hoe sê
Henri ? Afrika is nie vir sissies nie :-))))))))))
Driving around the center of Town today I was SHOCKED.... nay
APPAULED to se the following bumper sticker on the back of a car:
"Welkom in die Volkstaat" ...
Accelerating to catch up to the driver of the car I was
momentarily parilised with fear .... a crunchie... a skaap.... a
plank!!! NAAAAAA ... a real life tannie ... complete with boere
meisie rok (met blomme op).
Sies I thought... I wonder what sort of Apartheid era attrocities
she and her relations were involved in ... and more sinister ...
what fucking lies she told the Immigration Department to get into
the place.
These puritanical thinking Aryans better not get into OZ cos as
sure as shit if that happens I'll seriously consider returning to
South Africa (as a millionaire no douth with the demiase of the
Rand).
PLease ... If any of you Boere are considering coming over to Oz
.. let me assure you that it's really kuck here - no nannies at
all to do the work, no garden boys (unless of course you bring
SASby with you) and you can't go around treating the swartes like
kak. So please stay there...

Dankie vir die insette, Dries. Ek sal bieg dat tov hardeware ek nie juis
kan saampraat nie - my forte is sagteware en ook die skryf daarvan en dan
ook maar net in die een of twee programmeertale wat ek ken, maar gesien in
die lig van wat oubaas Langenhoven gesê het (kan nie 'n eier lê nie maar
weet wanneer een vrot is) en ook 'n ander uitdrukking in die rekenaarwêreld
(common sense isn't common) oortree ons maar bietjie op ander gebiede.

In die bostaande toets is dit belangrik om die rekenaar AF te skakel
ONMIDDELLIK nadat jy die tyd /datum verstel het. Wanneer jy dan boot
(aanskakel) gee die rekenaar jou mos geleentheid om in die CMOS in te gaan
(Press DEL ens ens) en dis die punt waar jy kan sien wat die CMOS klok
aanvang.
Die presiese interaksie tussen "Real Time Clock" en CMOS clock sal die
hardeware manne maar moet verduidelik. Wat ek wel weet, is dat die CMOS
met 'n klein plat ronde batterytjie aan die gang gehou word - ook wanneer
die rekenaar afgeskakel is en dat die CMOS dan die bron is waarvandaan die
Real Time Clock en al die ander uurwerke hulle "start up" inligting kry
wanneer die rekenaar aan die gang kom. Ouer rekenaars het 'n herlaaibare
NiCD batterystel vir die doel gehad en dit was nogal snaaks om
rekenaargedrag te sien met die batterye pap.

Kan amper sê dat tye wat opgestel word vir die roete Windhoek - Johannesburg
en Windhoek-Kaapstad eens op 'n tyd nasionale sport(s) hier was. Vandag
nog belangrik maar met die grensposte tussenin werk dit nie meer so lekker
nie.
Dis nog moontlik (mits jy gelukkig is by die grensposte) om 5:00 die oggend
uit Johannesburg weg te spring en as jy jou litte roer via Upington voor
sononder Windhoek in te stoom. Dis 1800 Km. Werk maar self uit -
daardie naald moet nie te dikwels onder 160 kom nie maar 180 gee jou so
bietjie beter "gap". :-))
Vir elke ou wat die nuwe Botswana roete sonder probleme afgelê het, kan ek
ook iemand noem wat minder gelukkig was. Volop berigte hier van
onhulpvaardige en hovaardige grensposamptenare, skokkende "spoedbeheer" met
antieke radar apparaat, "spot fines" wat op die plek betaal moet word en
sou jy dit wil betwis, moet jy oorbly vir die volgende dag om 'n magistraat
te sien aangesien die aksie normaalweg binne 'n uur voor sononder (wanneer
die grenspos sluit) uitgevoer word. Jy sal ook nie 'n kwitansie kry vir
die "boete" wat jy betaal nie. Moet nie eens probeer aandring daarop nie.
Hulle aanvaar ook NET pulas in Botswana wat vir my beteken ek moet vooraf
reel vir SA geld EN Botswana geld. In SA aanvaar hulle ook nie sommer ons
"Witbooi" note nie.
Kies die Botswana roete en jy moet dan sorg vir NOG 'n addisionele dokument
wat verklaar dat jy regtig die eienaar van die wiele onder jou alie is.
Voeg daarby die feit dat beeste, bokke, donkies, hoenders ook nog die reg
van weg opeis, en die Upington roete (500 Km langer) word dan die opsie wat
ek kies. In geldelike terme is dit R100 se ekstra petrol vir my maar aan
gemoedsrus "score" ek duisende. Vra maar enige ou wat probleme met sy
vuurwa in Botswana gekry het - jy's GESTRAND en as julle nie twee motors
bymekaar is en 'n sleeptou het nie, is dit NAG.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden (August 25, 1997 6:58 p.m. EDT) -- They were found to be
"inferior," flawed by mental retardation, bad eyesight or "undesirable"
racial characteristics. To prevent this genetic heritage from being passed
on, they were sterilized -- sometimes involuntarily.
Sweden had as many as 60,000 of its own citizens sterilized between 1935 and
1976. Adults and children were singled out by doctors, school authorities or
other officials and were pressured to consent to the procedures.
This sterilization program bore chilling similarities to Nazi ideas of
racial superiority -- and media reports on it now are provoking sober
self-examination.
The program stemmed from the pursuit of eugenics, a once-popular movement to
improve humanity by controlling genetic factors in reproduction.
Though Sweden's sterilization program was a matter of record, it received
little public attention, ignored in schoolbooks and hardly mentioned in
reference works. A recent series by the prestigious newspaper "Dagens
Nyheter," however, has stirred national debate.
Especially shocking to many Swedes is the fact that the law allowing the
sterilizations wasn't overturned until 1976, three decades after the Nazis'
human engineering policies collapsed in the rubble of the Third Reich.
The sterilizations targeted a wide range of people: those of mixed race;
unmarried mothers with several children; people judged to be habitual
criminals; even a boy considered "sexually precocious."
"Grounds for recommending sterilization: unmistakable Gypsy features,
psychopathy, vagabond life," reads one document cited by "Dagens Nyheter."
Maria Nordin, 72, told the newspaper she had been sterilized in 1943 because
she was regarded as mentally inferior.
"One day, the (school) superintendent said I should come into his room to
sign some papers. I understood what this was about so I ran into a toilet
and sat there and cried for a long time for myself," she said.
Sweden, with its well-developed welfare state and long-standing progressive
stances on social issues, is not accustomed to being on the defensive on
ethical issues.
"This is a frightening picture that now is being shown to the Swedish
people," Alf Svensson, chairman of the opposition Christian Democratic
Party, said in a letter to Prime Minister Goeran Persson.
Social Minister Margot Wallstroem says she is considering whether to
compensate people who were forcibly sterilized. That would require
overturning current law that says the victims can't get compensation because
the sterilizations were lawful when performed.
Nordin applied for compensation last year but her request was turned down by
Wallstroem, who now says she feels ashamed over the matter.
"I will take up the matter for discussion with the government. It is the
least I can do," the Cabinet minister said.
The "Dagens Nyheter" report has hit Swedes at a time when they were already
examining some painful history from World War II. The government, under
increasing international pressure, is looking into whether property looted
by the Nazis from Jews in other countries ended up in Sweden.
The issue of forced sterilization stands to be even more troublesome,
because it was conducted under the ostensibly benign gaze of the Social
Democrats -- that party that built Sweden's welfare state and proclaimed it
a paragon of enlightened government.
"The Social Democrats are implicated in a collective guilt," said Social
Minister Wallstroem, herself a member of the party.
The sterilization programs can be traced to turn-of-the-century enthusiasm
for eugenics.
The movement had adherents in many countries, but "Sweden was the first in
the world to grant this pseudoscience official recognition," Dagens Nyheter
wrote in describing how Sweden established an Institute of Racial Biology in
1921.
Not only did eugenics foresee an improved human race, it also was appealing
to Social Democrats, who were beginning to see that Sweden's welfare state
would be costly and wanted to limit the number of people who would have to
be supported, the newspaper said.
Vir nog 'n paar van die bronne, haal ek net die mees pertinente paragrawe
aan, en gee die URL:
Involuntary sterilization, of course, no longer enjoys any sort of vogue,
partly because it often expressed explicitly racist dimensions. One ground
for sterilization in Sweden was "unmistakable Gypsy features."
American advocates fretted over ethnic "mongrelization," but that became
plainly unsupportable after World War II.
Recently, Sweden admitted that from
1934 to 1974, its government system
atically sterilized about 62,000 Swedes "judged to be rebellious or
promiscuous, of low intelligence or perhaps of mixed blood" (Providence
Journal 8/31/97).
Forced sterilizations were part of Sweden's means to the goal of a
progressive welfare state. Switzerland, Australia, Belgium, Norway and, of
course, Germany also admit to similar policies, but all stress that the
programs were carried out publicly, in a sanctioned effort to create a
better society. Only now are such methods considered "barbaric," as Margot
Wallstrom, Sweden's minister of health and social affairs, stated during a
news conference.
In recent months European newspapers carried accounts of forced
sterilization in other countries, such as Finalnd, Norway, Denmark, Austria
and Belgium. But the fact that in Sweden more persons were sterilized, on a
per capita basis, than in other countries is hard to understand both in
Sweden and abroad. Perhaps it has to do with the image that Swedes have of
themselves and that they want to spread: Sweden, the peaceful nation,
neutral, unafraid to point at violations of human rights in other parts of
the world, a country of advanced social reforms, where citizens enjoy a high
and guaranteed level of public services in education, health and social
welfare
Ons het in Piet Retief weer die "Vuil Steyns" gehad (gaats ek wonder of een
van hule hier lees...) Hulle het eenslag vir 2 weke met vakansie gegaan
minus die twee jongste (van 'n hele boel) spruite. Laasgenoemde het die
twee weke maar so alleen aangesukkel (ek dink die grootste enetjie was so
5). Een van die ouens wat saam met my daar gewerk het, hett gereken hulle
het so baie kinders dat as jy 'n klip op die dak gooi lyk dit of die
laerskool uitkom.
S^e my, was tant Mien Robbertse dalk een van die van Namib:ie.

NS:Ek gebruik ^e, :e, ^o i.p.v die werklike diakritiese karakters. Ek is
heeltemal bewus van die [Alt]+nommer manier om die diakritiese karakters op
klinkers te kry, dis net dat ek vanaf 'n laptop werk en dis 'n vreeslike
schlep om so iets op hom reg te kry. Windoze laat jou toe om 'n ander taal
te installeer (Afrikaans ook) wat dan veronderstel is om jou 'n ander manier
te gee om die "dooie" karakters te tik maar ek kon dit nog nie mooi regkry
nie.
ek het weereens 'n taalkwessie. Kyk asseblief na die volgende sinne:
D: Das Schreiben kostet natürlich mehr Zeit.
NL: Het schrijven kost natuurlijk meer tijd.
Hoe sê 'n mens dit in Afrikaans? Ek het slegs volgende idee gehad:
Om te skryf kos natuurlik meer tyd.
Maar is dit ook moontlik - vergelyk met Duits en Nederlands - om 'n
werkwoord só te verander dat dit soos 'n selfstandige naamwoord kan
gebruik word? Of is dit ten minste moontlik om van die "om
te"-konstruksie ontslae te raak? Byvoorbeeld:
Skryf kos natuurlik meer tyd.
Skrywe kos natuurlik meer tyd.
