RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - “Ek glo dat dit belangrik is om aan te hou verbeter.” Vir Tanya James, inwoner van Rustenburg, word hiérdie woorde weërspieël in haar daaglikse leefwyse. 
Sy is onlangs aangewys as een van slegs twee geoktrooieerde bemarkers in Suid Afrika - ‘n titel wat as “baanbreker”-status beskryf word, na ‘n uiters streng keuringsproses. 
Sy het die sertifikaat ontvang van Chartered Marketer (Africa),  by ‘n toekenningsgeleentheid waar die African Marketing Confederation (AMC) gasheer was. James bestuur tans haar eie bemakingsmaatskappy en is tydens die seremonie deur die president van AMC, Helen McIntee, in die teenwoordigheid van familie, AMC-ampsdraers en ander lede van die fakulteit (wat James gementor het) geluk gewens.

RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Vlieëniers van regoor Suid-Afrika het die afgelope Saterdag hul tuis gemaak by Airspan Aerodrome vir ‘n verskeidenheid van aktiwiteite rondom vlugkuns. 
Die hoofdoel van die byeekoms was ‘n “Formation Flying”-seminaar wat oor twee dae aangebied is deur die Experimental Aircraft Association (EEA). Daar is saam geleer, gelag en gesels, maar bowenal, gevlieg!
Karl Jensen, afgetrede Suid-Afrikaanse Lugdiens (SAL)-kaptein, was een van die kleurryke karakters wat die geleentheid bygewoon het. Jensen is tans inwoner van Johannesburg, maar ten spyte van sy aftrede uit die nasionale lugdiens, het sy passie vir vlieg en vliegtuie nie getaan nie.

RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Leonardo da Vinci het gesê: “Bestudeer die wetenskap van kuns. Bestudeer die kuns van wetenskap. Besef dat alles verbind is aan alles anders.” 
Hiérmee stem doktor Jaco Meyer, oud-inwoner van Rustenburg heelhartig saam. “Die musiek wat ek komponeer is meestel konseptueel en hou verband met kuns. Ek hou baie van moderne en konseptuele kuns en probeer hard om die kuns en musiek op ‘n manier by mekaar uit te kry. Met konseptuele musiek bedoel ek meestal dat ek musiek skryf wat ‘n geïnteresseerde persoon se brein aan die gang sal sit.”
