How to improve your marks

Tip #5: Start organising your life

Clutter of any kind inhibits our ability to operate efficiently, so another way of improving your academic performance is to get organised. Keep your workspace tidy and all your notes and textbooks organised in such a way that you know where everything is. Start thinking more about your time management, too, as this will allow you to prioritise your time effectively, freeing time for problem subjects. Write yourself a daily timetable that incorporates your school schedule, dividing your day into slots of time and fitting in plenty of time for studying. Allocate extra time to subjects or topics you’ve identified as being ones you’re struggling with; it could be that the reason for your underperformance in these subjects is that you’re simply not devoting enough time to them.

Former Eskom CEO says probability of total blackout is low

JOHANNESBURG - Increased and higher stages of rolling blackouts are fueling fears of a total blackout but embattled power utility, Eskom has come out to allay those fears.

It insists a total blackout is highly unlikely.
Former Eskom CEO Jacob Maroga agreed, saying, "first of all, let's understand and appreciate the people who work at what is called the system operator, highly qualified people, experienced, and for a number of years now, they've been doing load shedding and managing the grid in such a way that we don't have uncontrolled collapse of the grid, and also understanding that load shedding is sort at the initial stages of managing the grid."

"There's still what is called levels of contingencies, that if for instance we go lower in terms of the supply and the frequency goes down, there are certain systems that are embedded in the power system that will automatically kick in order to protect what is called protecting the frequency, so on that basis, I agree that the probability of a blackout is still quite low, but the fact that we're doing load shedding means you know, we're managing the risk."
"So I'm still comfortable that the blackout probability is still quite low."
