Manie Jackson is gebore op 30 Desember 1979 in Pretoria. Sy skoolopleiding ondergaan hy aan die Voortrekker Laerskool in Pietermaritzburg en die Hoërskool Wolmaransstad.

Hy het 'n dogter, Iloné, gebore 2004.

Sy talente het reeds op skool begin wys toe hy in standerd 8 'n gedig die lig laat sien het, waarmee hy dan ook 'n prys verower het. Die gedig, Die Lewe, is in 1995 gepubliseer in die digbundel Die Fakkellig. Sy liefde vir musiek is gebore uit sy aanhang vir kunstenaars soos Bles Bridges, Carike Keuzenkamp, Rina Hugo en Elvis Presley.

In Augustus 1997 maak Manie Jackson sy debuut op die verhoog tydens die landswye Tahila-talentkompetisie in Johannesburg. In 1998 word Manie se debuut-CD vrygestel getiteld Wie Sal Weet? Die album lewer ses eerste plekke, twee tweede plekke en twee vierde plekke op by verskeie radiostasies se treffersparades, o.a. IFM 102.2, Overvaal Stereo en Radio Pretoria. In 1999 word Manie aangewys as IFM se Countrysanger van die jaar en deel ook die toekenning as Algehele Country Kunstenaar van die jaar met Bobby Angel. Hy ontvang ook die toekenning vir die Countrytreffer van die jaar met sy weergawe van You're The Reason. Later die jaar word sy tweede CD ook vrygestel getiteld My Lied Vir Jou.

Uiteindelik is daar weer ‘n stem om opgewonde oor te raak! Hier is Manie Jackson met sy eerste Select-album! Hy sing country, hy sing pop, hy sing ballades, hy sing dansnommers…

Kortom: hy kan en mag maar sing! Hy doen dit jare al en met daardie volronde stem het hy talle musiektoekennings verdien. Nou kry die hele land die geleentheid om sy stemgehalte en vertonings te geniet.

Hy streel met die ballades Die hemel weet, Totsiens is nooit verniet, Hande, Engele en Kom laat my weer lewe. In Engels wys Manie met sy vertolking van Dennis East se komposisie The trouble with love waarom countrypop sy fortè is!

Sedert die vrystelling van diè album het Manie die byna onmoontlike vermag om binne drie maande goue-status daarmee te bereik, en die album is sterk op pad na platinum! Verskeie radio- en televisietreffers is ook opgelewer… so het Julia vir 10 weke die nommer-1 posisie beklee op RSG se Groot 5; Die hemel weet was vir verskeie weke nommer-1 op talle gemeenskapsradiostasies, waaronder Overvaal Stereo, Radio Houtstok, Bay FM en IFM 102.2.

Manie se twee video-opnames van Die hemel weet en Julia is ook gereeld te sien op die kassie. En daarby het hy ook nou al drie verskynings op TV gemaak, en dit in die programme DKNT (sy album kuier al vir weke op die Top 10!), Jukebox en Opskop. Manie het ook die SAMA-toekenning in die country-genre verower, en daarby ook nog vriend en vyand verras toe sy album “MJ” na slegs tien maande platinumstatus bereik!

Hy het beslis sy merk gemaak en het reeds Sterstatus, en kan nie voorbly met optredes by verskeie funksies, klubs en nasionale feeste nie.

Sy optredes is ook gemik op oud en jonk, en bevat verskeie musieksoorte, om aan almal se smaak te voldoen! Geniet musiek wat opkikker; boonop deur ‘n stem vertolk wat die passie van musiek tot sy reg laat kom! Sy nuwe album “ONTHOU MY” is onlangs uitgereik en is reeds ‘n gunsteling!

Hillcrest Pharmacy has been situated in Selcourt for over 50 years, undeniably constituting a landmark for the resident population.

At Hillcrest Pharmacy, family values form the groundwork upon which the institution functions. Iva Carboni and Andries Eigelaar, pharmacists within the establishment, having dispensed as a team from Hillcrest Pharmacy for over ten years encapsulate these family values; as is evident in their dispensing to certain families over 3 generations.

Four years prior, Iva Carboni’s daughter - Alexia too joined the cohesive team at Hillcrest Pharmacy contributing with her previously garnered experience and educational background in pharmacy.

Hillcrest Pharmacy understands that viruses do not keep office hours; hence the pharmacy is continually open from 09:00 to 21:00, Monday to Sunday ensuring that families continue to function in good health.

Hillcrest Pharmacy’s recent expansion has seen the addition of a Baby and Wellness Clinic; Weight Loss Clinic; and an extended supplement and vitamin range. Due to the productive element of the expansion, Hillcrest Pharmacy now has the capacity to negotiate bulk buying with its suppliers and thus provide its valued customers with considerably more favourable pricing.

Furthermore, an extension of the make-up and gift ranges finds good fit for the upcoming festive and family season where locating a present for your loved family and friends is served with free gift-wrapping.

The Ditsong National Museum of Natural History formerly known as the Transvaal Museum was founded as the Staatsmuseum of the ZAR on the 1st of December 1892. And it has, since then acted as custodian and documentation centre of South Africa’s natural heritage. The Museum’s collections and exhibits include hominid fossils from the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site and associated fauna, including Mrs Ples [the nickname attributed to a fossil skull believed to represent a distant relative of all humankind]; fossils, skeletons, skins and mounted specimens of amphibians, fish, invertebrates, reptiles and mammals. On these collections are based the Museum’s educational programmes, research is done and information is communicated to all people of South Africa as well as to the international community. The Ditsong National Museum of Natural History is the only natural history museum in Gauteng and one of the largest in South Africa. It is unique in that it is the only institute in South Africa that offers the local, national and international community the opportunity to view its collections including original fossil material usually denied the public.

Hierdie ’n roman gaan jou in die maag skop.

Kara is sewentien jaar oud en besig om dood te gaan, ten spyte daarvan dat sy vier jaar lank chemoterapie gekry het. Saam met haar beste vriendin, Nicky, maak sy ’n lys van dinge wat sy wil doen voor sy doodgaan. Nommer een op haar lysie is seks.

Kara en Nicky trek weg om die goed op die lysie te begin doodtrek.

Noudat sy nie meer aan bande gelê word deur die dinge wat ’n mens se lewe “normaal” maak nie, eksperimenteer Kara met nuwe ervarings wat haar help om voluit te lewe terwyl haar liggaam stadig maar seker afgetakel word.

Wat volg is eers skokkend, en dan ontsettend teer. Eén seun kry dit reg om haar lief te kry, al weet hy dit gaan hom seermaak.

Intussen is haar pa steeds hoopvol dat sy genees sal word, maar Kara leef saam met die kanker wat haar vreet en sy wil net die laaste paar maande van haar lewe geniet. Sy is keelvol vir hospitaalbesoeke, die eindelose mediese toetse en medisyne wat ’n mens se liggaam saam met die kanker vernietig.
