The COVID-19 pandemic has had severe impact on all aspects of life and work, including the Post-School Education and Training sector. Specifically, teaching and learning have been severely impacted as a result of the suspension of contact classes.
Universities and TVET colleges have begun preparations to welcome back students to campuses. The Deputy Minister visited Ekurhuleni West Campus, Germiston Campus in Gauteng Province amongst others to monitor readiness. [Photo: GCIS]

The S boasted modifications typical of a higher-performance Porsche: these included a re-profiled cam, larger valves, better porting, loftier compression (9.8:1 vs. 9.0) and larger jets for the Weber carburettors (which were otherwise much like those given to the base 911 from early '66).
The result was 30 more horsepower, totalling 180 horsepower, furthermore the torque improved fractionally to 127 pound-feet, peaking fully at 1,000 rpm higher.
Unlike other models, the S lacked a choke, but pumping the accelerator was usually enough for starting. On the other hand, merely blipping the throttle on the freer-breathing S would send the tacho needle zinging to its 7,300 rpm redline. Porsche thus wisely fitted an ignition cut-out that interrupted spark to the plugs when it neared maximum revs, thus protecting the valve-train from overly enthusiastic drivers.
Naturally, the S also received chassis upgrades to match its extra power. These included a rear anti-roll bar (augmenting the one in front), Koni shocks, ventilated instead of solid-rotor disc brakes all-round and, soon to be a 911 hallmark, pretty five-spoke Fuchs alloy wheels that cut five pounds from the unsprung weight at each hub.
S gear ratios were evenly spaced except for the five-speed transmission's overdrive top, which was purposely very “high”. It gave 100 mph at 4,200 rpm, hardly a strain for the free-revving flat-six. Pulling a max rpm in the lower gears allowed the model to net 0-60 in eight seconds or less, running a standing quarter-mile of under 16 seconds at 90-plus mph.
Built in 1968 this fine example is finished in white with a contrasting black interior, and we're informed that it is in excellent condition throughout having undergone a full restoration. The interior is described as being “flawless”, boasting a period Grundig radio.
The car resided in Italy for many years and is now presented with a UK MoT certificate which is valid until July 2015, and is accompanied with European title documents. A fine example of a highly desirable motor car, and with values ever increasing, now is the time to buy one of Zuffenhausen's finest.

My write up on photographing the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas here
On the weekend of November 20-21, 2010, I was invited to photograph the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas prior to their opening December 15, 2010 in Las Vegas NV.
This set of images represents my efforts that weekend to showcase this newest resort property opening up on the Las Vegas Strip. Thanks to David Scherer from The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas for showing me around, to Miiko Mentz at Katalyst Films for helping to arrange the shoot, and to my wife for modeling for me.
