News24.com | LIVE: EFF the only political party that hasn’t received ‘dirty money’ – Malema

ANALYSIS 

The enemy is corruption, not journalists – expert 

Over the past few weeks the media has been grappling with how to cover the EFF’s controversial statements. The party’s leadership often make divisive, slanderous and factually incorrect statements at events the media attend. Do we allow them to say what they want, or do we limit our coverage of them? How can the media expose this behaviour without spreading the party’s offensive rhetoric at the same time?

Dr Glenda Daniels, associate professor in media studies at Wits University and SA National Editors’ Forum (Sanef) council member answered some of our questions. 

GD: I have to say upfront that I, as a council member of Sanef, chair the subcommittee of ethics and diversity where we made decisions about the EFF at our last council meeting on Saturday.

The first and most important decision we made was to invite the EFF to meet with us. We did this. They then strung out some qualification based on race: yes, but not if we brought along that “white boy” [referring to Adriaan Basson, Sanef treasurer].

This is offensive. The next day they said they were too busy to meet – in fact, they are busy right up until elections.

We did the right thing by wanting to meet. Censorship is not the policy of Sanef. We are all busy, but their comments and vitriol on social media are serious enough to make the time to sit down and discuss. 

News24.com | LIVE: #Statecaptureinquiry | Bosasa deleted almost 40 000 files containing evidence ahead of SIU computer raid

You Need Posted on by

Day 6 of Agrizzi’s testimony has commenced. The day has started off with some light humour:

Advocate Pretorius accidentally refers to witness Angelo Agrizzi as “Mr Gillingham”.

Agrizzi: You can call me anything, even Nandos, but not Gillingham. Or Watson.

But we soon get back to business, now dealing with evidence in relation to the SIU report which was released following an investigation into Bosasa.

Only certain parts of the report will be dealt with.

Health24.com | Mangoes prove why they are considered the ‘king of fruits’

You Need Posted on by

Mangoes are a delicious tropical fruit enjoyed by millions.

You can pop it in a smoothie, add it to your salad or simply enjoy it as is.

This delicious fruit is more than just a tropical treat; it’s packed with vitamins A, C and B6. A recent study, conducted by Texas A&M University, found that the high fibre content of mangoes can also help relive constipation.

According to studies, adult men need about 38g of fibre a day and women around 25g. 

Constipation relief

Constipation is a condition that affects millions of people around the world. According to an article published by the South African Pharmaceutical Journal, 20% of South Africans suffer from constipation.

The condition is characterised by having trouble passing stool and having fewer than three bowel movements a week.

The study compared the effect of consuming mangoes to taking the equivalent amount of fibre on the bowel movements of study subjects.

Over four weeks, women and men suffering from chronic constipation were equally divided into a group that ate one mango a day and a second group that consumed a teaspoon of fibre powder every day.

Further research

Although all study subjects experienced relief from their constipation, it was noted that those who ate the mangoes had better results. The researchers believe that this is due to the mineral content of mangoes.

The fruit consists of a combination of polyphenols and fibre. Polyphenols are nutrients found in plant-based foods. They are renowned for their antioxidant properties and digestive health benefits. What also makes mangoes a great solution for constipation is that, unlike laxatives or fibre powder, they also treat the intestinal inflammation that often accompanies constipation.

The researchers concluded that although mangoes were clearly more effective in relieving the symptoms associated with constipation, more research needs to be done on the mechanics of exactly how mangoes relieve constipation and the relationship between polyphenols and fibre.

Sport24.co.za | Racist furore erupts after Durban SA v Pakistan ODI

You Need Posted on by

Cape Town – Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed could be in hot water over an apparent racist comment during the second one-day international against South Africa in Durban on Tuesday.

The wicketkeeper’s comment was directed towards Proteas all-rounder Andile Phehlukwayo, who scored 69 not out and took 4-22 to steer his team to a five-wicket victory.

According to ESPNcricinfo, the incident occurred in the 37th over of South Africa’s run-chase when Phehlukwayo got an inside edge off a Shaheen Shah Afridi delivery that narrowly missed the stumps.

Phehlukwayo was on 50 at the time and as he ran to the non-striker’s end, Sarfraz was heard on the stump microphone saying, in Urdu: “Abey kaale, teri ammi aaj kahaan baitheen hain? Kya parwa ke aaye hai aaj?“.

In the commentary box, Mike Haysman was heard asking Ramiz Raja what was said.

“Difficult really to translate that,” the Pakistani commentator replied.

“It’s a big long sentence.”

However, according to the cricket specialist website, when translated it means: “Hey black guy, where’s your mother sitting today? What (prayer) have you got her to say for you today?”

Phehlukwayo had his fair share of luck earlier in his innings, successfully reviewing an lbw decision and surviving a dropped catch.

He came in with the Proteas in trouble at 80/5, but along with Rassie van der Dussen, who finished on 80 not out off 123 balls, steered the hosts to safety and ensured they levelled the five-match series at 1-1.

It remains to be seen whether disciplinary action will be taken by match referee, Sri Lanka’s Ranjan Madugalle, against the Pakistan skipper.

The third match in the series will take place at SuperSport Park in Centurion on Friday, starting at 13:00.
