There is very limited literature on the performance of these dances. Comparing and documenting these two dances among others will bring an understanding of their differences in the coming generations. In this study the researcher made use of a qualitative research design in form of ethnography. Data was collected from the villagers. The researcher chose knowledgeable people like the traditional healers who are also dancers and some elderly people in the village. Purposive and snowball sampling technics were used in identifying suitable informants with the required knowledge. Participant observation and interviews were used to collect data. -
PUBLICATION No. 38 MARCH, 1978 THOMAS MEIKLE, 1862-1939
PUBLICATION No. 38 MARCH, 1978 THOMAS MEIKLE, 1862-1939 The founder of the Meikle Organisation sailed from Scotland with his parents in 1869. The family settled in Natal where Thomas and his brothers John and Stewart gained their first farming ex perience. In 1892 the three brothers set off for Rhodesia with eight ox- wagons. Three months later they had completed the 700 mile trek to Fort Victoria. Here they opened a store made of whisky cases and roofed over with the tarpaulins that had covered their wagons. Progress was at first slow, nevertheless, branches were opened in Salisbury in 1893, Bulawayo and Gwelo in 1894, and in Umtali in 1897. From these small beginnings a vast network of stores, hotels, farms, mines and auxilliary undertakings was built up. These ventures culminated in the formation of the Thomas Meikle Trust and Investment Company in 1933. The success of these many enterprises was mainly due to Thomas Meikle's foresight and his business acumen, coupled with his ability to judge character and gather around him a loyal and efficient staff. His great pioneering spirit lives on: today the Meikle Organisation is still playing an important part in the development of Rhodesia. THOMAS MEIKLE TRUST AND INVESTMENT CO. (PVT.) LIMITED. Travel Centre Stanley Avenue P.O. Box 3598 Salisbury Charter House, at the corner of Jameson Avenue and Kings Crescent, was opened in 1958. The name Charter House was given by The British South Africa Company to its administrative offices. It is now the headquarters of the Anglo American Corporation Group in Rhodesia. -
Malaria Outbreak Investigation in a Rural Area South of Zimbabwe: a Case–Control Study Paddington T
Mundagowa and Chimberengwa Malar J (2020) 19:197 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12936-020-03270-0 Malaria Journal RESEARCH Open Access Malaria outbreak investigation in a rural area south of Zimbabwe: a case–control study Paddington T. Mundagowa1* and Pugie T. Chimberengwa2 Abstract Background: Ninety percent of the global annual malaria mortality cases emanate from the African region. About 80–90% of malaria transmissions in sub-Saharan Africa occur indoors during the night. In Zimbabwe, 79% of the population are at risk of contracting the disease. Although the country has made signifcant progress towards malaria elimination, isolated seasonal outbreaks persistently resurface. In 2017, Beitbridge District was experiencing a second malaria outbreak within 12 months prompting the need for investigating the outbreak. Methods: An unmatched 1:1 case–control study was conducted to establish the risk factors associated with con- tracting malaria in Ward 6 of Beitbridge District from week 36 to week 44 of 2017. The sample size constituted of 75 randomly selected cases and 75 purposively selected controls. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire and Epi Info version 7.2.1.0 was used to conduct descriptive, bivariate and multivariate analyses of the factors associated with contracting malaria. Results: Fifty-two percent of the cases were females and the mean age of cases was 29 13 years. Cases were diag- nosed using rapid diagnostic tests. Sleeping in a house with open eaves (OR: 2.97; 95% CI± 1.44–6.16; p < 0.01), spend- ing the evenings outdoors (OR: 2.24; 95% CI 1.04–4.85; p 0.037) and sleeping in a poorly constructed house (OR: 4.33; 95% CI 1.97–9.51; p < 0.01) were signifcantly associated= with contracting malaria while closing eaves was protec- tive (OR: 0.45; 95% CI 0.20–1.02; p 0.055). -

Large Hydro-Electricity and Hydro-Agricultural Schemes in Africa
FAO AQUASTAT Dams Africa – 070524 DAMS AND AGRICULTURE IN AFRICA Prepared by the AQUASTAT Programme May 2007 Water Development and Management Unit (NRLW) Land and Water Division (NRL) Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Dams According to ICOLD (International Commission on Large Dams), a large dam is a dam with the height of 15 m or more from the foundation. If dams are 5-15 metres high and have a reservoir volume of more than three million m3, they are also classified as large dams. Using this definition, there are more than 45 000 large dams around the world, almost half of them in China. Most of them were built in the 20th century to meet the constantly growing demand for water and electricity. Hydropower supplies 2.2% of the world’s energy and 19% of the world’s electricity needs and in 24 countries, including Brazil, Zambia and Norway, hydropower covers more than 90% of national electricity supply. Half of the world’s large dams were built exclusively or primarily for irrigation, and an estimated 30-40% of the 277 million hectares of irrigated lands worldwide rely on dams. As such, dams are estimated to contribute to 12-16% of world food production. Regional inventories include almost 1 300 large and medium-size dams in Africa, 40% of which are located in South Africa (517) (Figure 1). Most of these were constructed during the past 30 years, coinciding with rising demands for water from growing populations. Information on dam height is only available for about 600 dams and of these 550 dams have a height of more than 15 m. -

GONAREZHOU SAFARI AREAS IN SOUTH EASTERN ZIMBABWE The Gonarezhou Safari areas are hunting areas that are open/un fenced areas adjoined to the Gonarezhou National or Kruger National Park or the Mozambique National Park, these are massive areas made up of different concessions that form part of the collective Gonarezhou Hunting concessions, the ones that TAS offers are as follows from North to South. · Mahenye is a Gonarezhou hunting area that is situated on the North Eastern Boundary of the Gonarezhou National Park and has a further boundary with Mozambique.

The Northern parts of the Gonarezhou National Park that are adjoined and unfenced to Mahenye have this highest concentration of elephant bulls in the entire park, this is due to the volume of water being high and available feeding being high, there is lots of water on the hunting area side. Keys species of Mahenye are elephant, buffalo, hippo and crocodile. Mahenye borders on Mozambique and onto the Gonarezhou National Park in its North Eastern region of the park. The confluence of the Save River and Runde River is within the Mahenye Safari area including many large islands formed by the confluence of these rivers, most famous of these islands is Muchemeni Island, and also well known within the area is Chilo Gorge. -

Colonialism, socialist post colonialism and the present capitalist period appear to annul each other in succession through a chain of successive acts of overcoming. This paper argues that this gives rise to a number of incongruities, for it hides the way in which social persons are linked to historical processes via their primary solidarities. The past and the present are constantly being re-mixed into conglomerates of experience, where each component becomes largely indissociable from the others. The past and the present constantly visit each other in human experience. It is argued that only thus can one make sense of the claims to elite status that are witnessed today. 1 Institute of Social Sciences,University of Lisbon,October 2004.
