Anomia which is the inability to remember names.

S.A TRIVIA QUESTION
10 million people speak the language and most of these people live in South Africa. To 24% of South Africans, consider it to be their home language. 50 percent of the South Africa’s inhabitants understand the language.

What South African language am I talking about. A – Sotho B – English C - IsiZulu.

The answer is C - IsiZulu.

....here's some info
Zulu falls under the Nguni group and is one of the Bantu languages. The Zulu nation came into existence around the 14th century. Although there are many Bantu migrants, back then Zulu language adopted many of the sounds that make up the language from the San and from the Khoi.


DID YOU KNOW
Recipes for placing meat between slices of bread date back to Roman times. However, that was for steak, not minced meat. Thus, the steak burger is older than the hamburger!

ALSO DID YOU KNOW: No word in the English language rhymes with month.


TIP OF THE DAY
How to Learn if a Business Offer Is Legitimate
Have you been offered a really good opportunity, but are not sure whether it's honest or not? There are some simple ways to tell the difference between a legitimate offer and a scam.

Take a careful look at the offer. Ask for a copy of the contract if one is available.
Read through the contract, making notes of things that don't seem quite right to you. Highlight parts of it for future reference. Don't worry if you can't put your finger on the reason why something isn't right, just highlight what makes you suspicious.

Do some research about the company. If it's a new company, be suspicious. Go to it's website. If there are ads and things on the page this suggests the company isn't making enough money to buy a domain name and support it without ads. Be suspicious of ad-riddled pages or a sloppily-designed site.

Ask if they have any brochures, etc, for the company. If they do, this is a good sign.

Ask people you know in the industry what they think of the offer. They might know if it sounds legit or not.

Go back to the contract you reviewed and do some research about the specific sections that made you nervous. Talk to the company about these sections. They should be business-like, and professional. If you feel like they are trying to sweet-talk you be extremely wary.

If you feel it is necessary, talk to a contract lawyer or a friend experienced in this area.

Check out the company with the Better Business Bureau (or the equivalent consumer protection agency in your country).

If it sounds to good to be true, it is.

WE ALSO FEATURED:
An interview with groundwater consultant Dirk Vervelds from the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry. He joined me to talk about water conservation which is very important due to the hot and dry predictions for this summer.

We then played the interviewed done with Dr Cecile who had wrote about her experience with woman who earn more than men. She mentioned the complications it can cause in relationships, but on the positive side she said that more and more men are coming to terms with it.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
