Each year, on the 20th of October, members of the World Association of Chefs Societies (WACS) celebrate International Chefs Day.

The 2014 International Chefs Day theme comes with a twist and is named: PASS IT ON. This theme aims to potentiate the importance of knowledge and skills exchange, while underlining communication, open-minded approach and action for a cause, as one of the key elements to achieve sustainable development, preserve Chefs legacy, and nevertheless – make a good deed.

On this day, chefs around the world celebrate their profession and take the opportunity to not only promote the organization (WACS) but also goodwill and friendship amongst each other, as well as taking the time to help people who are less fortunate.

It is also a day on which to assist the young chefs but, most importantly, the day when we recognize the very important role that chefs play in our societies, for we have a great responsibility not only to feed, but also to give nourishment.

Chefs have the responsibility to lead the way when it comes to the use of ingredients in a sensible and responsible manner. Since the International Chef's Day inauguration in 2004, many events have taken place around the world to benefit charitable organizations and disadvantaged communities; this has highlighted that chefs are caring people and has worked to improve their image.

Winnie Madikizela-Mandela is challenging Mandela's last will and testament to gain ownership of his Qunu property

Winnie's lawyer Mvuzo Notyesi said the annex of the allerged forged marriage certificate was still to be investigated by the legal team.

On the other hand, Ismail Ayob, Mandela’s former lawyer who was at the centre of the divorce proceedings, has maintained his silence over the matter; for now we hope.

But royal family member Daludumo Mtirara said Madikizela-Mandela’s claims were not recognised by the royal family. “Her actions are opportunistic. She is hell-bent on denting Dalibhunga’s (Mandela’s praise name) good name and his legacy. We will not allow that to happen. She is an ex-wife,” he said.

Well this is my take on this: I dont agree with Winnie on this, even if she is right or not. If she had ever loved Madiba then I think all surrounding him should be left in peace. Such will only dent his LEGACY. Why did she not claim for this when he was still alive. She has had all this time to make the most of her status and eventaully money in the process of her fame. This means, I believe she has accumulated enough wealth to this day. Please respect your ex husband and believe me or not you should use your ever association with him as a means to empower others and become a great person yourself with legacy for all to remember

Malala Yousafzai, Youngest Nobel Peace Prize Winner

Malala Yousafzai, 17, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this year, along with India's Kailash Satyarthi, 60, for their struggles against the suppression of children and for young people's rights, including the right to education.

Since recovering from surgery, Yousafzai has taken her campaign to the global stage, especially with a speech at the United Nations last year.

Yousafzai's win shines a beam of light upon her efforts to make education available to children (especially girls) around the world. In early 2009, when she was only 11, Yousafzai blogged anonymously for the BBC about life under the Taliban. And in October 2012, she survived an assassination attempt by a Taliban gunman.

Today she is the youngest Nobel Prize winner.
